Abstract
In the above paper [Chaos, Solitons & Fractals, 13 (2002) 1843-1850] the author treats the boundary layer flow along a vertical isothermal plate of an electrically conducting fluid. The plate lies in a vertical free stream of constant velocity u_∞, constant temperature T_∞ and constant mass concentration C_∞. The plate moves vertically with a velocity which is a linear function of distance x (uw=cx). A transverse magnetic field with constant strength B0 is imposed on the flow. The boundary layer equations are integrated numerically. However, there is a fundamental error in this paper and the presented results do not have any practical value.
