Abstract
The purpose of this work is to find general solutions for magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) natural convection flow of an incompressible viscous fluid over an infinite vertical plate by considering radiative heat transfer, porous effects, and slip conditions. These solutions are obtained by the Laplace transform technique. They satisfy all imposed initial and boundary conditions and generate a large class of exact solutions. For illustration, three special cases are considered, and some interesting results from the literature are revived as limiting cases. The influence of different parameters on the fluid motion is graphically illustrated. This work has been published in the International Journal of Computational Thermal Sciences, Vol. 9, pp. 1–11 (2017).4
