Abstract
An analysis has been performed to study the natural convection of a non-Newtonian fluid between two infinite parallel vertical flat plates and the effects of the non-Newtonian nature of fluid on the heat transfer are studied. The governing boundary layer and temperature equations for this problem are reduced to an ordinary form and are solved by Adomian decomposition method (ADM) and numerical method. Velocity and temperature profiles are shown graphically. The obtained results are valid for the whole solution domain with high accuracy. These methods can be easily extended to other linear and non-linear equations and so can be found widely applicable in engineering and science. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
