Abstract
The problem of a fully developed MHD mixed convection flow in a vertical channel with the first-order chemical reaction is analyzed. The dimensionless governing ordinary differential equations are solved numerically by using the Maple 18 software. It is observed that dual solutions exist for both velocity and temperature.
