Mixed convective boundary layer flow over a vertical wedge embedded in a porous medium saturated with a nanofluid

A boundary layer analysis is presented for the mixed convection past a vertical wedge in a porous medium saturated with a nanofluid. Numerical results for friction factor, surface heat transfer rate and mass transfer rate have been presented for parametric variations of the buoyancy ratio parameter Nr, Brownian motion parameter Nb, thermophoresis parameter Nt and Lewis number Le. The dependency of the friction factor, surface heat transfer rate (Nusselt number) and mass transfer rate (Sherwood number) on these parameters has been discussed.
