The effects of pressure work with radiation heat loss on natural convection flow on a sphere have been investigated in this paper. The governing boundary layer equations are first transformed into a non-dimensional form and the resulting nonlinear partial differential equations are then solved numerically using finite-difference method with Keller-box scheme. We have focused our attention on the evaluation of shear stress in terms of local skin friction and rate of heat transfer in terms of local Nusselt number, velocity as well as temperature profiles. Numerical results have been shown graphically and tabular form for some selected values of parameters set consisting of radiation parameter Rd, pressure work parameter Ge, surface temperature parameter θw and the Prandtl number Pr.

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.
