Abstract

In this paper, Hydromagnetic mixed convection flow of an exothermic fluid in a vertical channel is considered. The dimensionless ordinary differential equations were solved using differential transformation method (DTM) to obtain the expression of velocity, temperature and concentration. From momentum, energy and mass equations.  The effect of Skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number with various parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration are presented and discussed. The result indicated that the effect of t, is to increase the Skin friction while K increases it at upper plate and suppresses it at lower plate.
