Abstract
The flow of so-called nanofluid (a dispersed mixture of liquid and nanoscale particles) in a boundary layer is considered within the framework of the diffusion approximation. The cases causing incompressibility of a nanofluid are analyzed. A self-similar problem is formulated and solved using a numerical method. Some of the calculation results illustrating the nature of nanofluid behavior in a boundary layer on a longitudinally streamlined plate under different temperature regimes are discussed.
