Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to study the effects of chemical reaction, thermal radiation and Soret and Dufour effects of heat and mass transfer by natural convection flow about a truncated cone in porous media. Design/methodology/approach – The problem is formulated and solved numerically by an accurate implicit finite-difference method. Findings – It is found that the Soret and Dufour effects as well as the thermal radiation and chemical reaction cause significant effects on the heat and mass transfer charateristics. Originality/value – The problem is relatively original as it considers Soret and Dufour as well as chemical reaction and porous media effects on this type of problem.
