TLDR
In this paper, the authors deal with free convection heat and mass transfer from a vertical plate embedded in a fluid saturated porous medium with constant wall temperature and concentration and apply integral method of Von-Karman type to obtain the analytical solution of this fundamental problem.Abstract:
This study deals with free convection heat and mass transfer from a vertical plate embedded in a fluid saturated porous medium with constant wall temperature and concentration. The temperature and concentration variations across the boundary layer produce a buoyancy effect which gives rise to flow field. Integral method of Von-Karman type is applied to obtain the analytical solution of this fundamental problem.read more
