  The study investigates the problem of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) free
convection over a non-isothermal axisymmetric body under the action of
transverse magnetic field. The body is embedded in a porous medium saturated
with electrically conducting non-Newtonian power law fluid. In order to obtain
similarity solution, it is assumed that the viscosity of the fluid decays
exponentially with temperature. The qualitative results are illustrated for a
vertical flat plate, horizontal cylinder and sphere.
