This note is a comment on the reply by Aydin and Kaya (Transp Porous Media (to appear), 2008b) to comments by Rees and Magyari (Transp Porous Media (to appear), 2008) on an article by Aydin and Kaya (Transp Porous Media (to appear), 2008a) concerning the combined effects of viscous dissipation and surface mass flux on the forced convection boundary-layer flow in a saturated porous medium modeled by the Brinkman equation. It is argued that the statements by Rees and Magyari are in fact appropriate. The thermal boundary condition imposed at the edge of the boundary-layer by Aydin and Kaya is incompatible with the energy equation, and thus the results of their paper are inconsistent with the physics of the situation. The attempts of Aydin and Kaya to justify their paper are flawed by an inappropriate assumption and calculations with an insufficiently large parameter.
