Abstract

An anallttical study of non-Darcian convective flow and heat transfer in an inclined composite porous medium is performed. The JIow is modeled using the Darcy* Lapwood-Brinkman equation. The viscous ancl Darcy dissipation terms are included in the energy equation. The goveming equations are coupled and nonlinear because ofthe inclusion qf dissipation terms and buoyancy force. The equations are solved using a straighforward perturbation method. The effects of various parameters such as porous paramater, inclination angle, Grashoff number, ratios of heights, permeabilities, and thennal conductivities are discussed.
