Abstract

An analysis of the unsteady MHD oscillatory flow of an incompressible, conducting, optically thin, dusty visco-elastic fluid through an inclined channel filled with saturated porous medium in presence of heat sink parameter and thermal radiation has been considered. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are nondimensioalized and are solved analytically by using perturbation technique. The expressions for velocity field, temperature field, skin friction, heat flux in terms of Nusselt number, flow flux for fluid and dust particles are obtained within the channel and are discussed graphically for various values of flow parameters involved in the problem.
