Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleMIXED CONVECTION BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW ON A VERTICAL SURFACE IN A POROUS MEDIUM SATURATED BY A NANOFLUID WITH SUCTION OR INJECTIONM. H.M. Yasin, N. M. Arifin, R. Nazar et al.An analysis of the steady mixed convection boundary layer flow past a vertical permeable surface embedded in a porous medium saturated by a nanofluid is performed in this study. Numerical solutions of the similarity equations are obtained using the shooting method. Three types of metallic or nonmetallic nanoparticles, namely Copper (Cu), Alumina (Al2O3) and Titania (TiO2) are considered by using … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 10 May 2013 · 7,165 accessesView PDF Cite
