  • The present study investigates the fully developed natural convection flow of dissipative radiative fluid over an infinite vertical porous plate in the presence of transverse magnetic field and variable thermal conductivity taking into account the effects of heat source/absorption and radiation absorption. The governing equations are coupled and highly non-linear which defy analytical solution and were solved numerically using the implicit finite difference scheme. The results of the computations for velocity, temperature and concentration distributions are displayed graphically for different values of the governing parameters while the Skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are presented in tabular form.
