Abstract
An exact analysis of the mass transfer effects on the free convection flow of an incompressible viscous fluid past an impulsively started infinite vertical (wall) limiting surface (Stokes's or Rayleigh's problem) has been carried out. Expressions for the velocity, temperature, species concentration and skin friction are obtained by using the Laplace transform technique. The velocity field and the skin friction are shown graphically for air (P=0.71) and mercury (P=0.025). The effects ofG (Grashof number),Gc (the modified Grashof number) andSc (Schmidt number) are considered qualitatively during the course of discussion.
