Effects of Slip, Porosity and Chemical Reaction over a Curved Stretching Surface with Mass Transfer

This paper presents the effects of wall slip and mass transfer on a viscous fluid over a curved stretching sheet through a Darcian porous medium in the presence of first order chemical reaction. The obtained governing differential equations in a curvilinear coordinate system are transformed into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The numerical solution for the governing nonlinear boundary value problem is obtained by shooting method with Runge-Kutta integration scheme. The influences of various physical parameters on the fluid velocity and concentration field are shown graphically and analyzed in detail. Numerical results for local skin friction coefficient and local Sherwood number are tabulated for different values of involved parameter.
