Title: Radiation Effects on Heat and Mass Transfer over an Exponentially Accelerated Infinite Vertical Plate with Chemical Reaction
Abstract: Abstract— In this paper the study of unsteady flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past an exponentially accelerated moving vertical plate had been investigated. The fluid is gray, absorbing -emitting but non scattering medium and Rosseland approximation is used to describe the radiative heat flux in energy equation. The dimensionless governing equations are solved analytically using the Laplace transform technique. The velocity, concentration and temperature fields are studied for different physical parameters like thermal Grashof number, mass Grashof number, Schmidt number and time. Temperature decreases with increased strength of radiation and Prandtl number. It is also observed that the velocity increases with increasing values thermal Grashof or mass Grashof number. Similarly, velocity increases with decreasing values of the Schmidt numbers.
