Similarity Solution of Non-Newtonian Three-dimensional Boundary-layer Through Porous Medium

Abstract

An analysis is made to study a three-dimensional boundary-layer flow of non-newtonian fluid over a porous media. The governing partial differential equations of momentum are transformed into self-similar non-linear ordinary differential equations by using new form of suitable similarity transformations. The obtain equations are then should by using shooting method. The flow phenomena is characterized by the power-law index `n', permeability of porous media `$\omega $' porosity parameter `$\phi $' effective viscosity `$\lambda $', three-dimensionality parameters `$\alpha $'. The numerical results of the velocity profiles are obtained and displayed graphically.
