The authors consider the title problem taking into account in the energy equation both the viscous dissipation and the work due to deformation. After introducing standard variables related to the stream function, they obtain a self-similar solution in terms of special functions. This allows to obtain the skin friction, heat transfer characteristics, and their asymptotic limits for large Prandtl number.
