Abstract: We study the transient magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) viscous laminar flow and heat transfer in a channel containing a Darcy-Forchheimer porous medium, under a constant pressure gradient with Hall current, ionslip, transpiration, viscous and Joule heating. The dimensionless momentum and heat conservation equations are solved using the Network Simulation Method (NSM). The effects of a number of thermophysical parameters on the transport phenomena are studied including Darcy number (Da), Forchheimer quadratic drag number (Fs), Hartmann number (Ha), Hall current parameter (β_e), ionslip parameter (β_i) and Eckert number (Ec). The model finds applications in geophysics and MHD energy generators.
