Free Convective Chemically Absorption Fluid Past An Impulsively Accelerated Plate With Thermal Radiation Variable Wall Temperature And Concentrations, Sanjib Sengupta

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The present paper deals with the theoretical study of thermal radiation and chemical reaction on free convective heat and mass transfer flow of a Newtonian viscous incompressible fluid past a suddenly accelerated semi–infinite vertical permeable plate immersed in Darcian absorption media. The fluid media is considered as optically thick and the Rosselend radiative heat flux model is incorporated in the energy equation. The governing equation of motions are first non-dimensionalised and then transformed into a set of ordinary differential equations by employing a suitable periodic transformation. The closed form of the expression for velocity, temperature and concentration fields as well …
