✦ Synopsis

Mass transfer with a heterogeneous chemical reaction of the first order in boundary layer flows of non-Newtonian power-law fluids is investigated. The problem is solved by the method of Laplace transform following the approach suggested by Apelblat [1] [A. Apelblat, Chemical Engineering Journal 19 (1980) 19]. The solution is obtained in a closed analytical form.

The authors show how the Graets-Nusselt problem in heat transfer theory may be extended to non-Newtonian flow. A simple rheological model, " the power law ," is used to obtain a partial differential equation for the temperature profiles, to which a semi-analytical solution may be found. The temperat
