  • Two fluid flow, inclined channel, magnetohydrodynamics.

  • Magnetohydrodynamic convective two-fluid flow and temperature distribution between two inclined parallel plates in which one fluid being electrically non-conducting and the other fluid is electrically conducting is studied. A constant magnetic field is applied normal to the flow. The system is rotated about y-axis with an angular velocity ‘W’.  Perturbation method is used to obtain solutions for primary velocity, secondary velocity and temperature distribution by assuming that the fluids in the two regions are incompressible, laminar, steady  and  fully  developed.  Increasing  values  of  rotation  is  to  reduce  temperature  distribution  and  primary  velocity where as the

    secondary velocity increases for smaller rotation, while for larger rotation it decreases.
