Thermophoresis Effects On Heat And Mass Transfer In A Non-Darcy Porous Medium
Abstract
thermophoresis particle deposition in mixed convection on a vertical plate embedded in a fluid saturated nonDarcy porous medium is studied using similarity solution technique. The effect of thermophoresis parameter (τ), nonlinear
convective parameters (σ
, γ) on concentration distribution, heat and mass transfer is discussed in detail for different values
of mixed convection parameter(Ra
x /Pex
) and Lewis number (Le). The results indicate that there is a considerable reduction
in concentration distribution for higher values of mixed convection parameter and Lewis number. Alsothere is a significant
variation in heat and mass transfer with respect to different values of thermophoresis parameter, non linear convective
parameters is seen.
