Abstract

A regular perturbation analysis is presented for the following laminar natural convection flows of Newtonian fluids with temperature-dependent effective viscosity: a freely-rising plane plume, the flow above a horizontal line source on an adiabatic surface (a plane wall plume) and the flow adjacent to a vertical uniform flux surface for porous medium. The temperature-dependent effective viscosity introduces nonsimilarity into the governing equations. Numerical results are presented for the flow and heat transfer characteristics.
