Abstract

In this manuscript, an attempt is made to study the effect of Inclined Magnetic Field and Radiation Absorption on Mixed Convection Flow of a Chemically Reacting and Radiating Fluid Past a Semi Infinite Porous Plate. Analytical solutions are obtained by solving the constituted governing equations by using regular perturbation technique. The impact of various physical parameters on the flow quantities are studied numerically. The expressions for other important physical parameters such as skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are also presented and studied with the help of tables. The results of this study are more suitable with the existing literature in the absence of the extended parameters.
