Abstract

An analysis is presented to investigate the effect of temperature-dependent viscosity on free convection flow along a vertical wedge adjacent to a porous medium in the presence of heat generation or absorption. The governing fundamental equations are transformed into the system of ordinary differential equations using scaling group of transformations and are solved numerically by using the fifth-order Rung–Kutta method with shooting technique for various values of the physical parameters. The effects of variable viscosity parameter on the velocity, temperature and concentration are discussed. Numerical results for the problem considered are given and illustrated graphically.
