In this article, we examined the solution of a homogeneously intensified isothermal inclined infinite plate with constant temperature. The plate is elevated to Tw , and the species accumulation is enhanced at a consistent speed. Under appropriate boundary conditions, the non-dimensional guiding formulae are remedied using the Laplace transform procedure. The effect of velocity, temperature, and concentration on various factors, including thermal and mass Grashof numbers, Schmidt numbers, and duration, is discussed. The velocity increases proportionally to the thermal and mass Grashof numbers, but decreases as the inclined angle, Schmidt numbers and time increase.
