Thermal radiation and heat generation/absorption effects on viscoelastic double-diffusive convection from an isothermal sphere in porous media

Thermal radiation and heat generation/absorption effects on viscoelastic double-diffusive convection from an isothermal sphere in porous media

Buoyancy-driven convective heat and mass transfer in boundary layer flow of a viscoelastic Jeffrey fluid from a permeable isothermal sphere embedded in a porous medium is studied. Thermal radiation flux and heat generation/absorption are also incorporated in the model. A non-Darcy drag force model i...
