Abstract
The presence of chemical reaction in a non –Darcian permeable plate with thermal radiation which effect by certain works from Soret effects and non-uniform heat sources in convection of heat and mass transfer flow of a micropolar liquid with radiation over a stretching sheet are studied. The Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method with shooting technique are using to solve governing non-linear partial differential equations revolutionized into a class of non-linear coupled ordinary differential equations by numerical method. Then, numerical results are acquired and proceed to investigate more for velocity, angular velocity, temperature and concentration including the local Nusselt number, Sherwood number, and skin-friction coefficient.The acquired results are displayed graphically to represent the effect of governing parameter on dimensionless velocity, angular velocity, temperature and also concentration. Next, the numerical results are compared graphically and found to be in good agreement with preceding published result in certain cases of the problem.
