Opis

The author studied the Mass Transfer and Natural Convection Effects in steady MHD flow with Radiation and Thermal Conductivity over a Porous Flat Plate . The different phase of overall numerical solution procedure from their non-dimensional form through group transformation to the solution of flow equations and then Runge-Kutta with shooting technique has been applied to solve the problem. The results showing the effects of various physical parameters on velocity temperature and concentration profiles have been obtained and presented graphically. It was concluded that convective heat transfer parameter lowers the velocity and temperature however, the concentration is increased. Similarly, radiation parameter increases the velocity, temperature and the rate of heat transfer but concentration decreases. The Prandtl number reduces velocity and temperature. The study may be helpful in research of many engineering branches as well as in applied scientific fields.
