Abstract
Transient free convection flow of a viscous fluid between two infinite vertical parallel plates is investigated. The temperature at one of the plates is assumed to be Td, at another plate the heat flux is assumed to be constant. The velocity and temperature distributions are found using the Laplace transform technique and are shown for small values of time t, because the initial stage of the unsteady process corresponding to the one-dimensional heat-transfer mechanism is under investigation.
