Abstract A conjugate forced convection with viscous dissipation heat transfer problem of a second-grade visco-elastic fluid past a flat plate fin has been studied. Governing equations include heat conduction equation of the fin, and continuity equation, momentum equation and energy equation of the fluid, were analyzed by a combination of a series expansion method, the similarity transformation and a second-order accurate finite-difference method. Solutions of a stagnation flow (β = 1.0) at the fin tip and a flat plate shape (wedge flow β = 0.0) on the fin surface were obtained by a generalized Falkner-Skan flow derivation. These solutions were used… More >
