| Abstract | The present paper deals with the combined
effect of viscous dissipation, Joule heating, transpiration, heat source, thermal diffusion and Hall current on the hydromagnetic
free convection and mass transfer flow of an electrically conducting, viscous, homogeneous, incompressible fluid past an infinite vertical porous plate. The governing partial differential equations of the hydromagnetic free convective boundary layer flow are reduced to non-linear ordinary differential equations by introducing
suitable similarity transformations and are solved analytically. Solutions for the velocity field, the temperature field and the concentration field are obtained and discussed with the help of graphs.
In addition, expressions for the skin-friction, the heat transfer and
the mass transfer are also derived and are discussed with the help of tables.
