Abstract

The numerical studies are performed to examine the mass transfer flow through porous medium with an inclined plate. The governing partial differential equations are transformed to a system of dimensionless coupled partial differential equation. Finite difference technique is used as a tool for the numerical approach. The corresponding momentum, concentration and continuity equation are derived by employing the usual transformation, and finite difference method has been used to solve the above equations. The effects on the velocity and concentration distribution of various parameters entering into the problem separately are discussed with the help of graphs and tables.
