G. Venkata Ramana Reddy, K. Raja Sekhar and A. Sitamahalakshmi

An analysis is presented for the magneto hydrodynamics (MHD) free convection fluid flow past a semi-infinite vertical plate in a porous medium with heat absorption and chemical reaction was considered. The non-dimensional governing equations are formed with the help of suitable dimensionless governing parameter. The resultant coupled non dimensional governing equations are solved by a finite element method. The effect of important physical parameters on the velocity, temperature and concentration are shown graphically and also discussed the skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are shown in tables.
