Quantum anomalies in Weyl semimetal (for either E.B not equal 0 or del T.B not equal 0) leads to chiral charge and energy pumping between the opposite chirality nodes. This results in chiral charge and energy imbalance between the Weyl nodes which manifests in several intriguing magneto-transport phenomena. Here, we investigate the role of electrical-, thermal-, and gravitational chiral anomaly on magneto-transport in Weyl semimetals. We predict the planar Ettinghausen and Righi-Leduc effect to be a distinct signature of these quantum anomalies. We also demonstrate a significant enhancement in the thermoelectric conductivity, Seebeck effect, Nernst effect, and thermal conductivity with increasing temperature. Interestingly, this anomaly induced transport violates the Wiedemann-Franz law and Mott relation.
