Abstract

A heated vertical flat plate in the presence of heat generation is an extremely significant technological issue, and many academics have studied this sort of problem. A vertical plate submerged in a fluid with varying viscosity will be used in this research to investigate the effects of variable viscosity and thermal conductivity on heat generation free convection flow. The boundary layer equations in this section are two-dimensional, laminar, and unstable. The fundamental governing equations are turned into non-dimensional governing equations by using the necessary variables. Using the Crank-Nicolson implicit finite-difference technique, these equations are solved numerically. Viscosity and thermal conductivity are temperature-dependent properties of a viscous, incompressible fluid. Variations in the study's numerous parameters will reveal and compare the velocities, temperatures, local skin friction, and local heat transfer co-efficient profiles. There will be a comparison between the current numerical data and previously reported data findings. Besides that, we'll compare our current work numbers to those of past released publications. Graphs and tables will be used to display the findings for a variety of key physical characteristics.
