Role of thermal diffusion on double-diffusive natural convection in a vertical annular porous medium

Role of thermal diffusion on double-diffusive natural convection in a vertical annular porous medium

This paper derives analytical solutions of fully developed natural convection heat and mass transfer in a vertical annular non-Darcy porous medium. This investigation extends the work of Cheng (2006) to a situation where Soret effect is present and the flow is both aided and opposed. The influence o...
