Effect of injection or suction on the Falkner-Skan flows of second grade fluids

The boundary layer flow of an incompressible fluid of grade two past a wedge with surface injection or suction placed symmetrically with respect to the flow direction is investigated. The effects of the non-Newtonian nature of fluid on the shear stress at the wall and the velocity profiles for diffe...

Description
Summary:The boundary layer flow of an incompressible fluid of grade two past a wedge with surface injection or suction placed symmetrically with respect to the flow direction is investigated. The effects of the non-Newtonian nature of fluid on the shear stress at the wall and the velocity profiles for different injection/suction rates and different wedge angle factor β are studied.
