Abstract

The present paper addresses magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow and heat transfer of two immiscible, incompressible, and conductive fluids in a channel filled with variable permeability porous layers. The flow in clear fluid region is assumed to be governed by Navier-Stokes equation, whereas the dynamics of porous region is determined by Darcy’s law. In the study, matching conditions are used at the interface. The governing equations are evaluated numerically and the results are depicted through graphs.
