Abstract

The spectral relaxation method is employed to examine natural convective heat and mass transfer, MHD flow over a permeable moving vertical plate with convective boundary conditions in the presence of viscous dissipation, thermal radiation and chemical reaction. The governing partial differential equations were transformed into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using a similarity approach. The resultant dimensionless ordinary equations were numerically solved by employing an effective Relaxation spectral algorithm with Chebyshev scheme. The pertinent results are then displayed in tabular form and graphically
