  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

The results of an analytical and numerical investigation of a laminar free-convective motion of liquid over a linear heat source are presented. The characteristic features of velocity and temperature field as functions of the density parameter and Prandtl number have been studied. A table of numerical solutions is given.
