The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow and heat transfer of viscous incompressible fluid through porous medium has been considered in the paper. Fluid flows through porous medium between two parallel fixed isothermal plates which have been kept at the two constant different temperatures. External applied magnetic field is homogenous and perpendicular to the plate. Due to the fluid flow magnetic field is induced along the fluid flow direction. The general equations that describe the discussed problem (momentum, magnetic induction and energy equation) under the adopted assumptions are reduced to ordinary differential equations and closed-form solutions are obtained. Solutions with appropriate boundary conditions for velocity, induced magnetic field and temperature have been obtained. The influence of Hartmann number, Reynolds magnetic number, suction parameter and porosity parameter have been presented graphically to show their effects on the flow and heat transfer characteristics.
