Abstract

The effect of adopting a two-temperature model of heat transfer on the classical problem of flow near the two-dimensional stagnation point on an infinite stretching surface in a porousmedium is studied in this paper. Such a model, which allows the solid and fluid phases to be in a local thermal nonequilibrium, has been found to modify substantially the behavior of heat transfer characteristics. The results obtained also show that the velocity and temperature fields are appreciably influenced by the porous medium parameter.
