Three-dimensional mixed convection flow, heat and mass transfer of Eyring-powell fluid over a convectively heated stretched sheet is inspected in this paper. The encouragement of Brownian motion, Thermophoresis and thermal radiations are accounted. Appropriate transformations are used to reduce the principal PDE’s into set of coupled highly non-linear ODE’s which are then solved numerically using RKF fourth-fifth order method. The consequence of several parameters on flow, heat and mass transfer characteristics are deliberated with the help of graphs and tables. It is observed that, the temperature and concentration profiles diminish for higher values mixed convection parameter.

The present article focuses on the time-dependent three-dimensional Maxwell fluid flow with temperature-dependent fluid properties along the stretching sheet. The heat and mass transfer analysis are presented in the occurrence of activation energy, convective boundary condition, and non-uniform heat source/sink effect. The flow model is converted into a system of coupled ODEs with the help of a similarity transformation. The numerical built-in technique Bvp4c is employed to solve the obtained coupled ODEs. The graphical outcomes are obtained against the various parameters and discussed. It is seen from the graphs that fluid velocity diminishes for stronger values of relaxation parameter and shows an opposite trend for the variable viscosity parameter. Moreover, it is noted from the tabulated data that the heat and mass transfer rate reduces for the stronger values of unsteadiness and the variable viscosity parameter.

This paper studies unsteady mixed convection boundary layer flow of heat and mass transfer past an inclined stretching sheet associated with the effect of periodical gravity modulation or g-jitter. The temperature and concentration are assumed to vary linearly with x, where x is the distance along the plate. The governing partial differential equations are transformed to a set of coupled ordinary differential equations using non-similarity transformation and solved numerically by Keller-box method. Numerical results for velocity, temperature and concentration profiles as well as skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are presented and analyzed for different values of inclination angle parameter.
