EFFECT OF NON-LINEAR DENSITY VARIATION ON CONVECTIVE HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER WITH THIRD ORDER BOUNDARY CONDITIONS

Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the combined influence of thermal radiation, Soret, Dufour effects, heat sources on convective heat and mass transfer flow of a viscous ,electrically conducting, chemically reacting fluid past a vertical plate with a convective surface boundary conduction. The governing equations are transformed by employing similarity transformations and the resultant non-dimensional equations are solved numerically using Runge-Kutta method along with Shooting technique. The effects of various parameters velocity, temperature, concentration ,skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are exhibited in figures ,tables and analyze in detail.
