Mixed convection boundary layers with prescribed temperature in the unsteady stagnation point flow toward a stretching vertical sheet
Mixed convection boundary layer caused by time-dependent velocity and the surface temperature in the two-dimensional unsteady stagnation point flow of an in-compressible viscous fluid over a stretching vertical sheet is studied. The transformed nonlinear boundary layer equations are solved numerical...
