An analytical study on entropy generation of nanofluids over a flat plate

The steady two-dimensional boundary layer flow of nanofluids over a flat plate is studied analytically to analyze the generated entropy inside the boundary layer at a constant wall temperature. Applying the transformation of the PDE equations of continuity, momentum and energy to ODE ones by similar...
