The present analysis is concerned with the criteria for the onset of flow reversal of the fully developed mixed convection in avertical channel under the effect of the chemical reactionThe governing equations and the critical values of the buoyancy force aresolved and calculated numerically via MAPLE Parameter zones for the occurrence of reversed flow are presented The exothermicchemical reaction is found to enhance the flow reversal and made flow reversal possible for symmetrical walls temperature
1 Introduction
The study of combined and free convection flow in a heatedvertical parallel-plate channel has received considerableattention because of its wide range of applications such asgeothermal reservoir cooling of nuclear reactors thermalinsulation energy storage and conservation chemical foodand metallurgical industries and petroleum reservoirs Acombined forced and natural convective flow puts on thesituation where an externally driven flow joins with an nativebuoyant flow and when both are prominent One of theearliest studies onmixed convection in a vertical channelwithuniform wall temperatures had been studied analytically byTao [1] Then Habchi and Acharya [2] studied mixed con-vection in a vertical channel with asymmetric walls heatingwhere one plate is heated and the other is adiabatic Fullydeveloped flow was revisited by Aung and Worku [3] andCheng et al [4] They analyzed effects of various boundaryconditions and different constant temperature parameterson buoyancy-aided flow Recently Pop et al [5] studiedthe mixed convection in a vertical channel with chemicalreaction and found that dual solutions exist for both velocityand temperature
The high buoyancy force due to a differentially heatedwall combined with an upward flow leads to a high fluid
flow adjacent to the walls that can precipitate a downwardflow (ie reversal flow) emanating from the open top ofthe channel in order to augment the increased upward flowExperiment on the appearance of flow reversal was conductedby Sparrow et al [6] for free convection in a one-sidedheated vertical channel Aung and Worku [3] and Chenget al [4] studied analytically the occurrence flow reversalfor the mixed convection Criteria for the onset of flowreversal in terms of the Grashof to Reynolds number ratiowere developed Criteria for the occurrence of this flowadjacent to the colder wall under effects of concentrationand magnetic field including internal heating micropolar aswell as thermophoretic were presented by [7ndash9] and [10 11]respectively
Numerical studies by Pop et al [5] found that reversedflow also occurs near the hot wall where physically it is notpossible [3] They demonstrated that increasing the internalheating and constant temperature parameters could enhancethe reversed flow but overlooked determining the criteriafor the onset of flow reversal Therefore in this paper weshall present the conditions for the onset of flow reversal ofthe fully developed flow mixed convection flow in a verticalchannel under effect of the chemical reaction for variousvalues of the constant temperature parameters studied by Popet al [5]

2 Mathematical Formulation
Consider the steady flow of a viscous and incompressiblefluid between two vertical and parallel plane walls Thedistance between the walls that is the channel width is ℓ Acoordinate system is chosen such that the 119909-axis is parallel tothe gravitational acceleration vector g but with the oppositedirection The 119910-axis is orthogonal to the channel walls andthe origin of the axes is such that the positions of the channelwalls are 119910 = 0 and 119910 = ℓ respectively A sketch of the systemand of the coordinate axes is reported in Figure 1The walls at119910 = 0 and 119910 = ℓ are isothermal at given temperatures 119879

1198792 where we assume that 119879
1ge 1198792 The fluid has a uniform
vertical upward stream wise velocity distribution 1198800at the
channel entrance Thus the basic equations for steady fullydeveloped flow of a viscous incompressible fluid and the heatassumed supplied to the surrounding fluid by an exothermicsurface reaction [5] are

4 Results and Discussion
The effects of various levels 119866119877 119870119865 and 119877
119879are presented
in Figure 2 These figures show that velocity increases as119866119877 119870119865 or 119877
119879increase Flow reversal is found near the
colder wall (119884 = 1) for 119866119877
ge 50 Increasing the Frank-Kamenetskii number or constant temperature parameterenhances the flow reversal The interesting behavior of thereversed flowoccurs at119877
119879= 01 in Figure 2(c) where reversal
is found near both of the walls This phenomenon due toheat generated by exothermic surface reaction and beingconducted away into the surrounding fluid and this behaviorprogress continuously cause the rate of the increase in thetemperature to rise sharply in middle region of the channel
The result in Figure 2 also implies that there exists acritical value119866
119877119888such that for119866
119877gt 119866119877119888 flow reversal occurs
at 119884 = 1 By setting 119889119880119889119884 = 0 at 119884 = 1 and utilizing dsolvewith continuation the119866
119877119888can be obtainedwithin the solution
domain The numerical value 119866119877119888
is plotted in Figure 3It was observed that increasing the Frank-Kamenetskii
number reduces 119866119877119888
(Figure 3(a)) while reducing the tem-perature difference ratio increases the 119866
119877119888(Figure 3(b))
When119870119865= 0 we recovered the critical value which had been
calculated by Aung and Worku [3] Cheng et al [4] El-Din[7] Barletta [12] and Chamkha et al [9] We can not obtainthe critical value of the ratio of Grashof number andReynoldsnumber (119866
119877) with symmetrical wall temperatures 119877
119879= 0
when there is no chemical reaction in the fluidThe119866119877119888exists
only in the range of constant 119877119879le 005
5 Conclusions
Parameter zones for the occurrences flow reversal by mixedconvection under the effect of chemical reaction in a verticalparallel-plate channel are presented We can conclude thatflow reversal adjacent to the cold wall is found to exist withinthe channel as the ratio of Grashof number and Reynoldsnumber is above a threshold value The exothermic chemical
