Abstract

A boundary layer analysis has been presented for the combined convection along a vertical non-isothermal wedge embedded in a fluid-saturated porous medium. The transformed conservation laws are solved numerically for the case of variable surface temperature. Results are presented for the details of the velocity and temperature fields as well as the Nusselt number. The wedge angle geometry parameter m ranged from 0 to 1.
