Numerical solution of Cheng-Minkowycz natural convection nanofluid flow with zero flux

The natural convection flow of nanofluid in Cheng-Minkowycz problem along a vertical plate is considered. The governing equations are converted into non-dimensional forms using similarity transformation variables. The resulting system of nonlinear differential equations is solved numerically. The in...

Description
Summary:The natural convection flow of nanofluid in Cheng-Minkowycz problem along a vertical plate is considered. The governing equations are converted into non-dimensional forms using similarity transformation variables. The resulting system of nonlinear differential equations is solved numerically. The influences of different parameters are demonstrated through profiles of velocity, temperature and nanoparticle volume fraction.
