Abstract
A theoretical analysis of three-dimensional Couette flow with radiation effect
on temperature distribution has been analysed, when the injection of the fluid at the
lower stationary plate is a transverse sinusoidal one and its corresponding removal by
constant suction through the upper porous plate is in uniform motion. Due to this type
of injection velocity, the flow becomes three-dimensional. The effect of Prandtl number,
radiation parameter and injection parameter on rate of heat transfer has been examined
by the help of graphs. The Prandtl number has a much greater effect on the temperature
distribution than the injection or radiation parameter.
