Abstract
Objective of current study is to explore the convective heat transfer of electromagnetohydrodynamic squeezed flow past a Riga plate. Riga plate is known as electromagnetic actuator which is the combination of changeless magnets and a spanwise adjusted cluster of alternating electrodes mounted on a plane surface. Heat and mass transfer with thermal radiation and chemical reactions are described. The obtained PDE systems are converted into ODE systems. Computations through homotopic procedure are performed. Comparative study with numerical data is performed. Related convergence analysis is taken care. Velocity, temperature and concentration have been studied. Velocity gradient and heat and mass transfer rates are also examined.
