Numerical solution for g-jitter induced free convection boundary layer from a sphere using keller-box method

The free convection from a sphere, which is subjected to a constant surface heat ?ux in the presence of g-jitter is theoretically investigated in this chapter. The governing equations of motion are ?rst non-dimensionalized and the resulting equations obtained after the introduction of vorticity are...
