Boundary layer flow adjacent to a vertical plate with constant surface temperature

The development of velocity and thermal boundary layers induced by a free stream adjacent to a vertical plate with constant surface temperature was studied. The governing partial differential equations were reduced to ordinary ones by a similarity transformation, before being solved numerically. Bot...
