✦ Synopsis

Airy-Boundary-layer

technique developed by Goodman in heat-transfer problems has been extended fo coupled phenomena of heat and mass transfer in porous medium. To justify the application of the method in heat-and mass-transfer problems, a linear problem with boundary conditions of second and third kind respectively has been discussed and results compared with already known exact solutions. A non-linear problem where the Luikov number is taken as linearly dependent on temperature and masstransfer potential, has also been discussed and some results have been exhibited graphi~Iiy.
