Soret and Dufour effects on the mixed convection flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid with convective boundary conditions

This paper investigates the effects of heat and mass transfer in the mixed convection flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid over a stretching surface with convective boundary conditions. Emphasis is given to the analysis of Soret and Dufour effects. Relevant problems are first formulated and then computed by h...
