Abstract
The stability of boundary layers involving mass transfer described by a two-parameter family of Fockner-Scane (F-S) solutions is analyzed. An effective method of solving the boundary problem is proposed for the F-S equation. A determinant method is proposed for solving the stability equation. The critical values of the stability characteristics are found over a wide range of gradient and mass-transfer parameters.
