    Abstract :

    We make an attempt to investigate combined influence of magnetic field,thermo-diffusion,radiation absorption and dissipation on connective heat and mass transfer flow of a viscous chemically reacting fluid through a porous medium in the concentric cylindrical annulus with inner cylinder maintained at constant temperature and concentration on the other cylinder maintained constant heat flux. The equations governing the flow, heat. Mass and micro rotation are solved by employing Galerkin finite element analysis with quadratic approximation functions. The temperature, concentration and micro concentration distributions are analyzed for different values of G, M, D-1, R, S and Ec. The rate of heat and mass transfer and couple stress are numerically evaluated for different variations of the governing parameters.
