Comment on “A novel analytical solution of mixed convection about an inclined flat plate embedded in a porous medium using the DTM-Padé” by M. M. Rashidi, N. Laraqi and S. M. Sadri, Int. J. Thermal Sciences, 49 (2010) 2405–2412

It is shown that one of the basic differential equations, as well as other important equations of the paper quoted in the title are erroneous and thus the reported results are invalid. This “accident” may have happened because the authors have taken their basic equations from the book of Nield and Bejan (2006) which had printing errors.
