Abstract
The fully developed free convection flow in a differentially heated vertical slot with open to capped ends investigated recently by Buhler (Heat Mass Transf 39:631–638, 2003) and Weidman (Heat Mass Transf Online First, February 2006) is revisited in this paper. A new method of solution of the corresponding fourth order boundary value problem, based on its reduction to “normal modes” by a complex matrix similarity transformation is presented. As a byproduct of the method, some invariant relationships involving the heat flux and the shear stress in the flow could be found.
