Solution of the Falkner–Skan equation for wedge by Adomian Decomposition Method

Abstract

The Adomian Decomposition Method is employed in the solution of the two dimensional laminar boundary layer of Falkner–Skan equation for wedge. This work aims at the solution of momentum equation in the case of accelerated flow and decelerated flow with separation. The Adomian Decomposition Method is provided an analytical solution in the form of an infinite power series. The effect of Adomian polynomials terms is considered on accuracy of the results. The velocity profiles in boundary layer are obtained. Results show a good accuracy compared to the exact solution.
