Abstract

Implicit finite-difference analysis of transient free convective flow past a semi-infinite vertical flat plate, on taking into account mass transfer, is carried out. Presence of gases like H, He, H 2O, NH 3, CO 2 in air are considered. Transient velocity, temperature and species concentration profiles are shown on graphs. Also values of local and average skin-friction, Nusselt and Sherwood number are calculated and shown graphically. During the course of discussion, the effects of Sc (Schmidt number), N (buoyancy ratio parameter) on the flow are discussed.
