The fully developed laminar mixed convection through a vertical annular duct embedded in a porous medium has been solved by using the non-Darcian flow model, where thermal boundary conditions on inner and outer walls are prescribed as isothermal-isothermal, isothermal-isoflux, and isoflux-isothermal, separately. The analytical solution has been derived to obtain velocity and temperature profiles, mass flow rate, wall friction factor and heat carried out by fluid. Finally, the parametric zones for flow characteristics of velocity distribution with the upward or downward flow are demonstrated.
