Radiative Effect on Flow and Heat Transfer over a Vertically Oscillating Porous Flat Plate Embedded in Porous Medium with Oscillating Surface Temperature

The effect of radiation on flow and heat transfer over a vertically oscillating porous flat plate embedded in porous medium with oscillating surface temperature is investigated. The analytic solutions of momentum and energy equations are obtained. The velocity and temperature profiles are computed. The frictional force at the plate due to viscosity of fluid is estimated in terms of non dimensional skin friction coefficient and heat convection at the plate is estimated in the form of Nusselt number. The effects of physical parameters Prandtl number Pr, Grashof number Gr, Suction parameter S and radiative parameter R on velocity and temperature profiles are analyzed through graphs. The effects of oscillation on the velocity and temperature profiles are shown through 3-D surface plot.


Introduction
The radiative free convective flow has many important applications in countless industrial and environment processes e.g.heating and cooling chambers, fossil fuel combustion energy processes, evaporation from large open water reservoirs, astrophysical flows, solar power technology and space vehicle re-entry.The radiative heat transfer plays an important role in manufacturing industries for the design of reliable equipment.Nuclear power plants, gas turbines and various propulsion devices for aircraft, missiles and satellites are examples of such engineering applications.

Mathematical Model of Flow
To study free convective flow and heat transfer through a vertical porous flate plate in the influence of radiative heat flux is considered (Figure 1).The axis of x is taken along the vertical plate and the axis of y is normal to the plate.The plate is oscillating in its own plane with a frequency of oscillation ω and mean velocity 0 U .The temperature at the plate is also oscillating and the free stream temperature is constant T ∞ .A constant suction velocity 0 V is applied at the oscillating porous plate.Since the plate is of semi infinite length therefore the variation along x-axis will be negligible as compared to the variation along y-axis so ( ) In view of the physical description the governing equations are defined as follows: The equation of continuity ⇒v, is independent of y and 0 v V = − (constant) is suction normal to the plate.The momentum equation for the prescribed geometry is given by Under usual Boussinesq's approximation the Equation ( 2) becomes ( ) The energy equation is given by The associated boundary conditions are where u the flow velocity component in the x-direction, ν the kinematic viscosity, g the acceleration due to gravity, β the volumetric expansion coefficient, α the thermal diffusivity, κ the thermal conductivity, r q the radiative heat flux, T the fluid temperature, T ∞ the ambient temperature and 0 U the amplitude of oscillation of the plate.
The Roseland approximation for radiative heat flux [Brewster, 1992] is given by 4 4 3 where σ is Stefan -Boltzmann constant and δ is the mean absorption coefficient.
