Transient mixed convection flow arising due to thermal and mass diffusion over porous sensor surface inside squeezing horizontal channel

摘要

The double diffusion effect on the mixed convection flow over a horizontal porous sensor surface placed inside a horizontal channel is analyzed.With the appropriate transformations,the unsteady equations governing the flow are reduced to non-similar boundary layer equations which are solved numerically for the time-dependent mixed convection parameter.The asymptotic solutions are obtained for small and large values of the time-dependent mixed convection parameter.The results are discussed in terms of the skin friction,the heat transfer coefficient,the mass transfer coefficient,and the velocity,temperature,and concentration profiles for different values of the Prandtl number,the Schmidt number,the squeezing index,and the mixed convection parameter.
