    Abstract: Our innovative similarity transformation for in-depth research of convection heat and mass transfer is presented. For solving convection heat and mass transfer issues, the boundary layer analysis method is used, and meanwhile, the Falkner-Skan transformation is currently popular to treat the core similarity variables for velocity field similarity. ...

    This article belongs to the Special Issue Convection Heat and Mass Transfer
    Abstract: Through extensive study on hydrodynamics and heat transfer, calculation correlations of heat transfer for laminar free/forced mixed convection on a vertical flat plate is obtained. It contains the following three research investigations: (i) local-similarity analysis and transformation based on our developed new similarity analysis method replacing... Show More
