Abstract

The steady axisymmetric flow through a porous medium of an incompressible viscous fluid impinging on a porous flat plate is examined with heat transfer. A uniform suction or injection is applied perpendicular to the plate which is kept at a constant temperature. The governing nonlinear momentum and energy equations are solved numerically using the method of finite difference. The effect of the porosity of the medium and the uniform suction or injection on both the flow and heat transfer is investigated.
