RADIATION AND MASS TRANSFER EFFECTS ON MHD MIXED CONVECTIVE FLOW FROM A VERTICAL SURFACE WITH HEAT SOURCE AND CHEMICAL REACTION

The effects of radiation and mass transfer on MHD mixed convection flow of a vertical plate with heat source/heat absorption and chemical reaction has been is discussed. The governing equations are transformed into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using suitable perturbation technique. Graphical results for the velocity, temperature and concentration profiles based on the numerical solutions are presented and discussed. We also discuss the effects of various parameters on the skin-friction coefficient and the rate of heat and mass transfer at the surface
