Abstract
The combined effects of rotation and radiation on the unsteady hydrodynamic flow past an impulsively accelerated vertical plate with ramped plate temperature have been studied. The fluid considered here is a gray, absorbing-emitting but non-scattering medium and the Rosseland approximation is used to describe the radiative heat flux in the analysis. An analytical solution of the governing equations has been obtained by employing the Laplace transform technique. The numerical results of fluid velocity, fluid temperature, shear stresses and the rate of heat transfer at the plate are being presented with the graphs and tables. It is observed that the radiation parameter has a retarding influence on the velocity field for the ramped plate temperature as well as the isothermal plate. An increase in radiation parameter leads to fall in the fluid temperature for the ramped plate temperature as well as the isothermal plate. Further, the rate of heat transfer at the plate increases with an increase in radiation parameter.
