Any substance with a temperature above zero transfers heat in the form of radiation. Thermal radiation always exits and can strongly interact with convection in many situations of engineering interest. The influence of radiation on natural or mixed convection is generally stronger than that on forced convection because of the inherent coupling between temperature and flow field [1]. Convection in a channel (or enclosed space) in the presence of thermal radiation continues to receive considerable attention because of its importance in many practical applications such as furnaces, combustion chambers, cooling towers, rocket engines and solar collectors. During the past several decades, a number of experiments and numerical computations have been presented for describing the phenomenon of natural (or mixed) convection in channels or enclosures. These studies aimed at clarifying the effect of mixed convection on flow and temperature regimes arising from variations in the shape of the channel (or enclosure),in fluid properties, in the transition to turbulence, etc Recently, Ghaly [2], Chamkha et al.[3], Yussyo El-Dib and Ghaly[4], analyze the effect of radiation heat transfer on flow and thermal fields in the presence of a magnetic field for horizontal and inclined plates. Shohel Mahmud [5] studied the effects of radiation heat transfer on magneto hydrodynamic mixed convection through a vertical channel packed with fluid saturated porous substances. The unsteady flow of a rotating viscous fluid in a channel maintained by non-tensional oscillations of one or both the boundaries has been studied by several authors to analyze the growth and development of boundary layers associated with geothermal flows for possible applications in geophysical fluid dynamics [6-10]. From the literature survey we can see that the majority of published papers use only the convective heat transfer through a porous medium with Radiation effect mode in their research whereas the effect of Radiation exists in vertical channel. The study of the Radiation effect offers a good comprehension on magneto hydrodynamic convection through vertical channel. The present work deals with the problem of heat transfer through a porous medium in a vertical channel with Radiation effect under the influence of an inclined magnetic field of intensity. 2. Formulation of the problem We consider the steady flow of an incompressible, viscous ,electrically conducting fluid confined in a vertical channel bounded by two flat walls under the influence of an inclined magnetic field of intensity Ho lying in the plane (y-z).The magnetic field is inclined at an angle α to the axial direction k and hence its components are
(0, H 0 Sin(α ), H 0 Cos (α )) .The walls are maintained at non-uniform temperature. In view of the non-uniform boundary temperature the velocity field has components(u,0,w)The magnetic field in the presence of fluid flow induces the current( ( J x ,0, J z ) .We choose a rectangular Cartesian co-ordinate system O(x,y,z) with z-axis in the vertical direction and the walls at x = ± L . When the strength of the magnetic field is very large we include the Hall current so that the generalized Ohm’s law is modified to
J + ω eτ e JxH = σ ( E + μ e q xH )
(1)
where q is the velocity vector, H is the magnetic field intensity vector, E is the electric field, J is the current density vector,
ω e is the cyclotron frequency, τ e
is the electron collision time,σ is the fluid conductivity and
μ e is the
magnetic permeability. Neglecting the electron pressure gradient, ion-slip and thermo-electric effects and assuming the electric field E=0. Then We choose a Cartesian co-ordinate system O(x,y,z) such that the plates are at z=0 and z=L and the z-axis coincide with the axis of rotation of the plates .The steady hydro magnetic boundary layer equations of motion with respect to a rotating frame moving with angular velocity Ω under Boussinesq approximations are
J x − m H 0 J z Sin( α ) = −σμ e H 0 wSin(α )

5. Analysis of the Numerical results In this analysis we investigate the effect of Radiation on Convective Heat Transfer flow of a Viscous Incompressible electrically conducting fluid in a Non-Uniformly vertical channel. We take the Prandtl Number P=0.71 and į = 0.01.The Velocity components u, w and The Non-dimensional Temperature distribution ș are shown in Figs.1-3 with Radiation Parameter N1. The Secondary velocity(u) which is due to the Non-uniform Temperature on the boundary is depicted in Fig.1.It shows that an increase in N1 results in an enhancement in u . The effect of radiation parameter N1 on the axial flow w is shown in Fig.2.It is found that an increase in N15, w depreciates in the left region and enhances in the right region and for higher N110. w depreciates in the flow region except in the narrow region adjacent the lower boundary y=-1 and this region reduces with increase in N1. The variation of ș with Radiation parameter N1 .It is found that ș reduces with increase in N1 the inclusion of the radiative Heat Transfer leads to the remarkable depreciation in the Non-dimensional Temperature ș (Fig.3). The average Nusselt Number (Nu) which represents the measures the rate of Heat Transfer at η = ± 1 is shown in Tables.1 and 2 for different variations of G,Į1, and N1 . We find that the rate of Heat Transfer experiences an enhancement with increase in the amplitude Į 1 and the Radiation parameter N1 (Tables.1 and 2) 0.4
