Abstract

CHOUDHURY, R.  and  DEY, D.. Free Convective Elastico-Viscous Fluid Flow With Heat and Mass Transfer Past an Inclined Porous Plate in Slip Flow Regime. Lat. Am. appl. res. [online]. 2012, vol.42, n.4, pp. 327-332. ISSN 0327-0793.

The unsteady free convective elastico-viscous fluid flow past a porous inclined plate in slip flow regime in presence of periodic temperature and concentration has been analyzed. The suction at the plate is assumed to be fluctuating with time. The governing equations of the problem have been solved by using perturbation scheme. The approximate solutions have been derived for the velocity, temperature field, concentration field, skin friction, rate of heat transfer and rate of mass transfer. The values of the skin friction co-efficient are calculated numerically and presented in tabular form for various values of the flow parameters. The influence of visco-elastic parameter with the combination of other flow parameters on the velocity field have been obtained and illustrated graphically
