Abstract An analysis is performed to investigate the influence of radiation, thermal-diffusion and variable properties on mixed convection flow, heat and
mass transfer from a vertical plate in a porous medium saturated with a power-law fluid. The non-linear partial differential equations are reduced
to ordinary differential equations by implementing Lie scaling group transformations. These ordinary differential equations are solved numerically
by implementing a shooting technique. The numerical results for dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration profiles for pseudo-plastic,
Newtonian and dilatant fluids are presented graphically for different values of variable viscosity, variable thermal conductivity, Soret and radiation More >
