Purpose
The paper aims to consider non‐viscous, laminar mixed convection boundary‐layer flow over a horizontal moving porous flat plate, with chemical reaction.
Design/methodology/approach
The governing equations are expressed in non‐dimensional form and the series solutions of coupled system of equations are constructed for velocity, temperature and concentration functions using numerical method.
Findings
The investigated parameters are: buoyancy parameter, chemical reaction parameter, order of chemical reaction, Prandtl number and Schmidt number.
Originality/value
The partial differential equations are transformed to ordinary differential equations. The method of one parameter continuous group theory is used for this transformation.
