ABSTRACT:
The velocity distribution for the boundary layer flow over a semi-infinite flat plate embedded in a saturated porous medium governed by equations is determined by using the method of successive approximations. We evaluated the shearing stress T0 over the plate, displacement thickness δ1 and momentum thickness δ2. We conclude that with the increase of the first order resistance A1, the displacement thickness δ1 increases whereas the momentum thickness δ2 and shear stress T0 decrease. The result is substantiated with the help of tables and graphs.
