Abstract

Effects of Hall current on free convection and mass transfer flow through a porous medium bounded by a vertical surface has been analysed. The problem is solved analytically. The velocity profiles are shown on graphs. Effects ofm (Hall parameter).K * (permeability parameter), and Sc (Schmidt number) on velocity are discussed.
