Analytical and Numerical Study of Unsteady MHD Mixed Convection Flow in Porous Media with Thermal Radiation and Chemical Reaction

.Abstract
This paper presents a detailed investigation of unsteady magneto- hydrodynamic (MHD) mixed convection flow in a porous medium in the presence of thermal radiation and a first order chemical reaction. The governing equations, formulated under the Boussinesq
approxi- mation, are reduced via similarity transformation to a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations.
