Similarity Solution of Marangoni Convection Boundary Layer Flow over a Flat Surface in a Nanofluid

The problem of steady Marangoni boundary layer flow and heat transfer over a flat plate in a nanofluid is studied using different types of nanoparticles. The general governing partial differential equations are transformed into a set of two nonlinear ordinary differential equations using unique simi...
