A computational investigation on thermo-viscous steady flow between extremely stretched parallel flat plates with suction/injection

A computational investigation on thermo-viscous steady flow between extremely stretched parallel flat plates with suction/injection is explored in the current investigation. The non-linear governing coupled differential equations obtained in terms of velocity and temperature are reduced to the non-dimensional form. The bvp5c Matlab software tool with collocation techniques has been implemented to solve the resulting fundamental non-dimensional equations governed by the flow. To guarantee accuracy, the solver used an adaptive mesh refinement technique with both absolute and relative tolerances. Mesh independence tests and residual checks were used to confirm numerical convergence. The numerical results obtained are shown in tabular forms and graphically depicted for many physical factors like permeable coefficient, viscosity coefficient, constant pressure, temperature gradients, Prandtl number, conductivity, and thermo stress factors. When the numerical findings are compared to previously known analytical data, it is found that both good concurrence and excellent convergence have been attained.
