Convection Boundary Layer Flow And Heat Transfer In An Eyring - Powell Fluid Past A Horizontal Circular Cylinder In Porous Medium

Source abstract

The above studies did not consider transport in porous media. Such flows are very important in, for example, fuel cell technologies, geothermic, materials processing, trickle bed chromatography, etc. Coupled heat and mass transfer in free convection boundary layer flows in porous media arise in many such applications. A large proportion of studies utilize the Darcy model which is valid for low Reynolds number flows (Bear [12]). Important studies in this regard have been made by
