%0 Journal Article %T Radiation effects on free-convection flow past an impulsively started vertical plate in a rotating fluid %A Vijayalakshmi A.R. %J Theoretical and Applied Mechanics %D 2010 %I Serbian Society of Mechanics, Belgrade %R 10.2298/tam1002079v %X Theoretical study of thermal radiation effects on unsteady free convective flow over a moving vertical plate in a rotating fluid is considered. An exact solution is obtained for the axial and transverse components of the velocity by defining a complex velocity. The effects of rotation, radiation, free-convection parameters and the skin friction components on the plate are discussed. %K free-convection %K thermal radiation %K rotating fluid %K heat transfer %K vertical plate %U http://www.doiserbia.nb.rs/img/doi/1450-5584/2010/1450-55841002079V.pdf
