Unsteady Free Convective Flow Past a Vertical Cone in the presence of Chemical Reaction and Thermal Radiation Effects

摘要

In this study, the effects of thermal radiation and chemical reactions on unsteady free convective flow past a vertical cone have been investigated. The governing dimensionless flow equations, which are unsteady, coupled and non-linear partial differential equations, are numerically solved using the Finite Differential Method (FDM) by developing suitable codes in MATLAB. Fluid velocity, temperature, and species concentration profiles have been drawn for time and different flow parameters such as radiation parameters (Ra) and chemical reaction parameters (K_r) and results are discussed.
