Abstract

An Investigation on Soret effect with nth order chemically reactive MHD free convection flow through a porous medium in a rotating system is carried out in this present study. Similarity transformations are used to convert the governing nonlinear boundary layer equations into ordinary differential equations and solved it numerically. The numerical solutions of various dimensionaless parameters on the velocity, temperature, concentration profiles, skin friction, Nusselt number, Sherwood number have been studied through graphs. The present study concluded that Soret Effect on nth order chemical reaction play major role in many industrial applications.
