摘要
This work is concerned with applying the fractional calculus approach to the magnetohydrodynamic （MHD） pipe flow of a fractional generalized Burgers＇ fluid in a porous space by using modified Darcy＇s relationship. The fluid is electrically conducting in the presence of a constant applied magnetic field in the transverse direction. Exact solution for the velocity distribution is developed with the help of Fourier transform for fractional calculus. The solutions for a Navier-Stokes, second grade, Maxwell, Oldroyd-B and Burgers＇ fluids appear as the limiting cases of the present analysis.
