Abstract
A mathematical model has been developed to investigate double diffusive convective heat and mass transfer flow over a vertical porous plate in a rotating system with thermophoretic effect. The governing equations pertaining to the model for mass, momentum, energy and species concentration are transformed into nondimensional form by using similarity transformation. Numerical solutions are found by using shooting method that uses fourth order Runge-Kutta method and Newton-Raphson method. The field variables for primary and secondary velocity, energy and concentration are discussed for various values of rotational parameter, thermophoretic parameter and suction/injection parameter through graphically as well as skin-friction coefficient in x and z directions and local rate of heat and mass transfer coefficients are analyzed for various physical parameters and whose results are reported in tabular form.
