摘要
In this paper, we consider the unsteady free convection boundary layer flow which is induced by time-periodic variations in the surface temperature of a vertical surface embedded in a porous medium. The basic steady flow is that of a power-law distribution where the surface temperature varies as the nth power of the distance from the leading edge. Small-amplitude time-periodic disturbances are added to this basic distribution. Both the low- and high-frequency limits are considered separately, and these are compared with a full numerical solution obtained by using the Keller-box method. Attention is restricted to the cases n≤1; when n=1, the flow is locally self-similar for any prescribed frequency of modulation.
