Abstract The aim of numerical works is to inspect the effect of free convective viscous incompressible displacement, past an oscillating semi-infinite vertical plate along with variable mass diffusion including first order chemical Reaction. The governing equations in the current study were solved by the implicit finite difference scheme. The fluid velocity and transient temperature for different thermal physical Parameters such as the chemical Reaction parameter, Prandtl number, Schmidt number, Sherwood number, thermal Grash of number, and mass Grashof number were studied. The examined associated with the actual solution in the literary works and they entered a good agreement. It was definitely altogether due to the influence of first -order chemical reaction, the velocity increasing during the generative reaction and decreases at the destructive reaction. Top Keywords Chemical reaction, oscillating vertical plate, Isothermal, Heat Transfer, Mass Diffusion and boundary layer. Top |
