Non-similar solutions of mixed convection flow from an exponentially stretching surface

In this paper we focus on to obtaining non-similar solutions for steady two dimensional double diffusive mixed convection boundary layer flows over an impermeable exponentially stretching sheet in an exponentially moving free stream under the influence of chemically reactive species. The nonlinear partial differential equations governing the flow, temperature and species concentration fields are presented in non-dimensional form with the help of suitable non-similar transformations. The resulting final non-dimensional set of coupled nonlinear partial differential equations is solved by using an implicit finite difference scheme in combination with the Newton's linearization technique. The effects of various non-dimensional physical parameters on velocity, temperature and species concentration fields are discussed. The results reveal that the streamwise coordinate ξ remarkably influences the flow, thermal and solutal concentration fields which display the existence of non-similar solutions.
