Abstract:We examine the conjugate effects of thermal and mass diffusion on the unsteady natural convection flow from a heated sphere. The mathematical model of the problem is made into a system of nonsimilar partial differential equations introducing appropriate transformations. We solve this system employing the implicit finite difference technique. Numerical solutions have been elucidated with the skin friction as well as heat and mass transfer for varying Prandtl number, Schmidt number, combined buoyancy parameter, … Show more
