Analytical solutions are derived for flow in a semi-infinite vertical porous medium with heat and mass transfer. When the temperature and mass concentration are uniform a constant pressure is possible and sustains a fully developed flow. Thereafter there is a small perturbation of the wall temperature and concentration, and the subsequent two-dimensional problem is tackled for large Prandtl number and free convection parameters and small Reynolds number. The heat transfer rate at the wall is discussed quantitatively. |
