Abstract

In this paper investigation of mixed convective flow and heat transfer in vertical channel filled with immiscible viscous fluids has been carried out. The governing differential equations are solved analytically by regular perturbation method. The impact of governing parameters on velocity and temperature fields namely Grashof number, Brinkman number, perturbation parameter, viscosity ratio, width ratio, conductivity ratio, Nusselt number are investigated and represented graphically.
