Abstract
- The classical power law non-Newtonian fluids energy boundary layer equation is proved improper to describe the self-similar heat transfer. A theoretical analysis for momentum and energy boundary layer transfer behavior is made and the full similarity heat boundary layer equation is developed, which may be characterized by a power law relationship between shear stress and velocity gradient with the Falkner-Skan equation as a special case. Both analytical and numerical solutions are presented for momentum and energy boundary layer equations by using the similarity transformation and shooting technique and the associated transfer characteristics are discussed.
