Abstract
The fundamental study of the phenomenon of natural convective heat and mass transfer near a vertical plate in the presence of porous medium is investigated. The fluids considered in the discussion are air and water. The unsteady, coupled, non-linear partial differential equations are solved numerically by Crank Nicolson scheme. The influence of various parameters like velocity, temperature and concentration are analyzed. The skin friction, the Nusselt number, the Sherwood number, average skin friction, average Nusselt number and average Sherwood number are also presented graphically for both air and water. It has been observed that velocity components increase with permeability parameter where as temperature and concentration decreases with it. An analysis is performed to check the stability and the convergence of the finite difference scheme which converges faster and unconditionally stable.
