Non-Darcy Mixed Convection Flow of Non-Newtonian Fluids on a Vertical Surface in a Saturated Porous Medium
RESUMO
A non-Darcy mixed convection flow along a vertical plate in a non-Newtonian fluid-saturated porous medium is investigated. A single mixed convection parameter has been used that covers the entire regime of mixed convection from pure forced to pure free convection limits. The dimensionless equations governing the flow are solved numerically. Numerical results for the velocity, temperature, and heat transfer at the wall are presented for various values of the parameters, namely, the Ergun number, Rayleigh number, or Peclet number, viscosity index, mixed convection parameter, and the temperature variation parameter. Results for free and mixed convection flows are compared with the existing results.
