Effects of Hall current and radiation absorption on MHD micropolar fluid in a rotating system

The objective of this paper is to study the effects of Hall current and radiation absorption on MHD free convection mass transfer flow of a micropolar fluid in a rotating frame of reference. A uniform magnetic field acts perpendicular to the porous surface in which absorbs micropolar fluid with a constant suction velocity. The entire system rotates about the axes normal to the plate with uniform angular velocity Omega. The dimensionless governing equations for this investigation are reduced to a system of linear differential equations using regular perturbation method, and equations are solved analytically. The influence of various flow parameters of the flow field has been discussed and explained graphically. The present study is of immediate interest in geophysical, cosmically fluid dynamics, medicine, biology, and all those processes which are greatly embellished by a strong magnetic field with a low density of the gas.
