Analytical Solution of The Laminar Boundary Layer Flow over Semi-Infinite Flat Plate: Variable Surface Temperature

In this paper, the problem of forced convection over a horizontal flat plate under condition of variable plate temperature is presented and the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) is employed to compute an approximation to the solution of the system of nonlinear differential equations governing the problem. This paper provides good supplements to the existing literature and generalizes the previ...

Study of Boundary Layer Convective Heat Transfer with Low Pressure Gradient Over a Flat Plate Via He’s Homotopy Perturbation Method

A Novel Similarity Solution of Turbulent Boundary Layer Flow over a Flat Plate

In this paper, the similarity solution of turbulent boundary layer flow on the flat plate with zero pressure gradients is presented. By employing similarity variables the governing partial differential equations are transformed to ordinary ones with inconsistent coefficients and solved numerically with the use of Runge–Kutta and shooting methods in conjunction with trial and error procedure. Fo...

MHD Free Convective Boundary Layer Flow of a Nanofluid past a Flat Vertical Plate with Newtonian Heating Boundary Condition

Steady two dimensional MHD laminar free convective boundary layer flows of an electrically conducting Newtonian nanofluid over a solid stationary vertical plate in a quiescent fluid taking into account the Newtonian heating boundary condition is investigated numerically. A magnetic field can be used to control the motion of an electrically conducting fluid in micro/nano scale systems used for t...

Forced Convective Nonlinear Laminar Boundary Layer Flow of a Nanofluid over a Flat Plate

Forced convective heat transfer plays a significant role in almost all industrial sectors. Examples include cooling of microelectronics, process intensification in the chemical industry, heat exchange/waste heat recovery in power plants and cooling of car engines, to name but a few. In special, a study of forced convective laminar boundary layer behaviour on a flat plate has attracted the atten...
