Unsteady MHD Couette flow through a porous medium in a rotating system

An unsteady hydromagnetic Couette flow of a viscous incompressible fluid through a porous medium overcrowded between parallel porous non-conducting plates, rotating with a uniform angular velocity about an axis normal to the plates is considered. The flow is generated by the motion of the upper plate. The fluid and plates rotate in unison with the same angular velocity. An exact solution of governing equations is obtained by using the Laplace transform. Solutions for velocity distributions as well as the coefficient of skin-friction are obtained and their profiles for various values of physical parameters are shown through graphs.
