Momentum and heat transfer on a continuous moving surface in a power law fluid

1997 
This analysis examines the momentum and heat transfer occurring in the laminar boundary layer on a continuously moving and stretching two-dimensional surface in a non-Newtonian power law fluid. The Merk-Chao series expansion is used to generate ordinary differential equations from the partial differential momentum equation in order to obtain universal velocity functions. For the problem of combined momentum and heat transfer in the boundary layer of the moving sheet, a general power series is used to describe the fluid's velocity and temperature. Examples for a non-linear surface velocity and a linearly stretching surface velocity are provided.
