The nonlinear non-dimensional, similarity-transformed boundary-layer equations governing the problem are solved using an efficient numerical method based on the Runge-Kutta integration scheme and shooting iteration technique. Numerical calculations were carried out for different values of the various non-dimensional quantities governing the flow regime. The analysis shows that the temperature decreases with increasing radiation parameter, N while an increase in the Prandtl number leads to a corresponding decrease in the temperature profile; a rise in the thermal Grasshof and the mass transfer number leads to increase in the velocity profile and a rise in the Schmidt number Sc leads to a decrease in the concentration profile.","PeriodicalId":372283,"journal":{"name":"Universal Journal of Applied Mathematics","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129825109","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The second-order reactions CH4 + M ! CH3 + H + M, CH3 +M! CH2 +H +M, CH3 +M! CH +H2 +M were explored. To solve the integrated equation, the variational Tikhonov's regularization method was used. It was shown that this method allowed both estimating the threshold energy value and re-establishing the cross- section form. By using the calculated cross-section we can obtain estimated chemical reaction rate constants over a wide temperature range. The data obtained can be used in various calculations in applied elds, in particular, in hypersonic gas dynamics problems, as well as for lling information system databases.","PeriodicalId":372283,"journal":{"name":"Universal Journal of Applied Mathematics","volume":"113 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128623945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
