摘要
The problem of three dimensional free convective flow with heat and mass transfer of a visco-elastic fluid through a highly porous medium with periodic permeability has been investigated. The porous medium is bounded by an infinite vertical porous plate with constant suction. The free stream velocity is supposed to be uniform. The analytical expressions for dimensionless skin-friction, the rate of heat transfer, the rate of mass transfer have been obtained and these results have been presented graphically for different values of the flow parameters involved in the solution.
