Flux transport characteristics of free boundary value problems for a class of generalized convection-diffusion equation (Q2425099): Difference between revisions

Summary: The similarity transformation is introduced for studying free boundary value problems for a class of generalized convection-diffusion equation. A class of singular nonlinear boundary value problems are obtained and solved by using Adomian decomposition method (ADM). The approximate solution can be expressed in terms of a rapid convergent power series with easily computable terms. The efficiency and reliability of the approximate solution are verified by numerical ones. The effects of the variable thermal conduction \(k(z)\), convection functional coefficient \(h(z)\), power law exponent \(n\), and parameter \(\alpha\) on the flux transport characteristics are presented graphically and analyzed in detail.
