Abstract

In this paper, we demonstrate that the previously reported effect of the transverse magnetic field on a steady mixed convective heat and mass transfer flow of an incompressible viscous fluid past an infinite vertical isothermal porous plate considering the induced magnetic field with viscous and magnetic dissipations of energy by Zueco and Ahmed (2010) [Appl. Math. Mech. -Engl. Ed. 31(10), pp. 1217-1230] has some major flaws. We show that the results included in the paper by Zueco and Ahmed (2010) are incorrect both from a theoretical and practical point of view.
 
Key words: Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD), induced magnetic field, heat source, magnetic Prandtl number.
