Abstract: A fundamental improvement of any one-parameter integral procedure for compressible laminar boundary-layer analysis is described. It is shown, by means of comparisons with exact solutions covering ...

Abstract: In this paper, a study is made of the unsteady laminar boundary-layer equations for free convection on vertical plates and cylinders to establish necessary and sufficient conditions under which ...

Abstract: The development of momentum and energy fields in the laminar-wake region above a heated finite vertical plate is studied analytically. Detailed velocity and temperature profiles in the immediate ...

Abstract: The use of artificial neural network (ANN), as one of the artificial intelligence methodologies, in a variety of real-world applications has been around for some time. However, the application ...

Abstract: The effect of small cross flow and surface-temperature variation on laminar free-convection boundary-layer characteristics along a vertical plate is studied by means of a perturbation analysis. ...

Abstract: Exact asymptotic solutions for unsteady free convection on a vertical plate with arbitrary surface temperature or heat-flux variations and Prandtl number are presented. Analytical solutions in ...
