Journal of engineering physics Aims and scope

Abstract

We consider a conjugate problem of free convection of a non-Newtonian fluid with a power law in a plane vertical channel. We discuss the general formulation of the problem, give an analysis of particular cases, and show the effect of the parameters of the problem on convection.
