摘要
The present work investigates heat enhancement through a moving porous fin of triangular profile. The interaction between the fluid and the porous media in not locally thermodynamic equilibrium. The transport through the porous medium is derived using Darcy's model. The calculations are carried out using the two-dimensional Differential Transformation Method (2D DTM), which is an analytical solution technique that can be applied to various types of differential equations. The approximate analytical solutions are validated using the numerical solution obtained via the inbuilt numerical solver in MATLAB (pdepe). The results reveal that the 2D DTM can achieve accurate results in predicting the solution of such problems. The impact of the thermal parameters on temperature distribution is performed using the closed-form solution generated by DTM. © 2019 Trans Tech Publications Ltd, Switzerland
