• RADIATION EFFECT ON CONVECTIVE HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER FLOW FROM A VERTICAL SURFACE WITH CHEMICAL REACTION AND HEAT SOURCE/ABSORPTION

Abstract

We have studied the radiation and chemical reaction effects of heat and mass transfer on MHD mixed convection flow of a vertical surface with heat source/absorption and has been is discussed. The resulting set of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations is solved using the MATLAB in-built numerical solver bvp4c. Approximate solutions have been derived for the velocity, temperature, concentration profiles, skin friction and Nusselt number. The obtained results are discussed with the help of the graphs to observe the effect of various flow parameters.
