Forced convection boundary layer slip flow over a plate in darcy-forchheimer porous medium

The boundary layer flows play a central role in many aspects of fluid dynamics since they describe the motion of a viscous fluid close to the surface. The forced convection can be enhanced passively by changing flow geometry, boundary conditions or by enhancing thermal conductivity of the fluid....
