Abstract

Simultaneous effects of heat and mass transfer on flow of third grade fluid between two heated porous sheets is considered. The lower sheet is shrinking in a linear manner. Soret and Dufour effects are considered to analyze the thermo-diffusion and diffusion-thermo effects on the flow. Series solutions for the velocity, temperature and concentration fields are developed. Effects of non-Newtonian fluid parameters, rotation parameter and the constant applied magnetic field on the temperature and concentration profiles are discussed through graphs. Three-dimensional sketches are given for the velocity profiles.
