A Mathematical analysis of oscillatory free convection in a vertical wavy channel with Chemical reaction
Abstract
The effect of chemical reaction on unsteady combined heat and mass transfer flow of a viscous electrically conducting fluid in a vertical wavy channel with oscillatory flux. The non-linear governing equations are solved by employing a regular perturbation technique with the slope d of the wavy wall as a perturbation parameter. The velocity, the temperature and the concentration are analyzed for different variations of the governing parameters. The rate heat and mass transfer are evaluated for different variations.
