β¦ Synopsis
A numerical study is reported to investigate the transient free-convective flow of reactive viscous fluid in a vertical channel formed by two infinite vertical parallel plates. A theoretical analysis is also presented to find the expressions for temperature, velocity, skin-friction and Nusselt number for the steady fully developed flow using perturbation technique. During the course of numerical computation, an excellent agreement is found between steady state solutions and transient solution at large value of time.

## Abstract The problem of fully developed laminar mixed convection flow in a vertical wavy channel filled with two immiscible viscous fluids is studied analytically. Nonβlinear equations governing the motion have been solved by linearization technique, wherein the flow is assumed to be in two part
The one-dimensional non-linear equations for a viscous fluid with finite thermal conductivity are solved to get an exact solution for a steady vertical flow. The stability of such a steady flow is examined to find that the viscosity has a very pronounced stabilizing influence on convective and acous
