slugInvestigation of Thermal Boundary Layer of non-Newtonian Fluid Past over a Wedge
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
This paper investigates the problem of steady, laminar, two-dimensional boundary layer flow and heat transfer of an incompressible, viscous non-Newtonian fluid over a wedge. A non-Newtonian fluid represented by power law model. Similarity transformation method has been utilized to obtain the ordinary differential equations with associated boundary conditions from the partial differential equations. The transformed coupled ordinary differential equations are solved numerically. Numerical values of local Nusselt number are tabulated. The effects of various parameters on flow and the heat transfer characteristics are discussed numerically and presented graphically. Comparison of present study with the existing limiting solution is shown and examined.
