Flow Over an Exponentially Stretching Porous Sheet with Cross-diffusion Effects and Convective Thermal Conditions

This article investigates the influence of cross-diffusion on the viscous fluid flow over a porous sheet stretching exponentially by applying the convective thermal conditions. Velocity slip at the boundary is considered. The numerical solutions to the governing equations are evaluated using successive linearisation procedure and Chebyshev collocation method. It is observed from this study that...

Competition effects in diffusion-controlled bulk reactions between ions.

A numerical solution for competitive diffusion into two static charged sinks is presented and compared against an approximate analytical solution. It is shown that for an attractive Coulomb potential the correction to the total diffusive flux of ionic reactants due to diffusion interaction between sinks may be ignored for large enough values of the Onsager length and thus the reaction rate can ...

Microwaves in organic synthesis. Thermal and non-thermal microwave effects.

Microwave irradiation has been successfully applied in organic chemistry. Spectacular accelerations, higher yields under milder reaction conditions and higher product purities have all been reported. Indeed, a number of authors have described success in reactions that do not occur by conventional heating and even modifications of selectivity (chemo-, regio- and stereoselectivity). The effect of...
