Transient heat and mass transfer of micropolar fluid between porous vertical channel with boundary conditions of third kind. (English) Zbl 1401.76132

Summary: An investigation of heat and mass transfer characteristics of unsteady free convective flow of viscous incompressible micropolar fluid between the vertical porous plates in the presence of thermal radiation is carried out in the present work. The fluid is considered to be grey, absorbing-emitting but non scattering medium and the Cogley-Vincent-Gilles formulation is adopted to simulate the radiation component of heat transfer. The resulting system of equations is solved numerically with Crank-Nicolson implicit finite difference method. The effects of various physical parameters such as transient, micropolar parameter, radiation parameter, Reynolds number, Schmidt number, heat and mass transfer Biot numbers on the velocity, temperature and concentration field are discussed graphically.
