Diffusion of Chemically Reactive Species in Stagnation-Point Flow of a Third Grade Fluid: a Hybrid Numerical Method

The boundary layer flow of a third grade fluid and mass transfer near a stagnation-point with diffusion of chemically reacting species on a porous plate is investigated. Due to a porous plate the suction is taken into an account. Using suitable transformations, the momentum and concentration equat...
