Abstract

Solutions for the boundary value problem over an infinite domain have been obtained by first transforming the two-dimensional laminar boundary layer equations into an ordinary differential equation through similarity variables. The governing problem is the two-parameter Falkner–Skan equation with β, the streamwise pressure gradient and γ the suction velocity. The closed form solution for β = −1 obtained earlier is rewritten, which is then generalized for general β. The same equation is also solved using method of stretching of variables. Different velocity profiles have been observed for both β and γ. The results from both approaches are compared with that of direct numerical solutions, which agree very well.
