Viscous Flow Due to a Permeable Stretching/Shrinking Sheet in a Nanofluid (Aliran Likat dengan Helaian Meregang/Mengecut dalam Nanobendalir)

The classical problems of forced convection boundary layer flow and heat transfer near the stagnation point on a permeable stretching/shrinking surface in a nanofluid is studied theoretically. The similarity equations were solved numerically for two types of nanoparticles, namely copper and silver i...
