Analytic Solution of Steady Three-Dimensional Problem of Condensation Film on Inclined Rotating Disk by Differential Transform Method

The differential transform method (DTM) is applied to the steady three-dimensional problem of a condensation film on an inclined rotating disk. With similarity method, the governing equations can be reduced to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The approximate solutions of these...
