Abstract: This study presents a reacting system where the thermal conductivity depends linearly on the temperature of the system. A numerical solution of the resultant energy equation of the system is obtained using shooting technique with second order Runge-Kutta scheme. We show that maximum temperature decreases as thermal conductivity increases and also, the temperature of the system increases as the reaction parameter increases.
