Abstract
Steady two-dimensional free convection flow through a porous medium bounded by a vertical infinite surface is considered. Expressions for the velocity, temperature and the rate of heat transfer are obtained. Effects of G (Grashof number) and K (permeability parameter) on the velocity and the rate of heat transfer are discussed.Keywords
