The unsteady laminar boundary layer flow along a vertical stationary plate was investigated by taking into account the viscous dissipation of non- Newtonian fluid in case of free convection particularly. The governing non-linear partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations using a similarity transformation. Transformed equations have been discretized by finite difference approximation. The effects of viscous dissipation on velocity and temperature profile with unsteady case dimensionless numbers such as, Prandtl number (Pr), Eckert number (Ec), Grashof number (Gr) and magnetic parameter (M) have been depicted. It is observed that the interaction between the viscous heating and the buoyancy force has a significant influence on the results. Small effects have been found for Eckert number (Ec). Eventually, skin fiction coefficient (Cf) and heat transfer rate (Nu) are presented in tabular form for engineering studies.
