Abstract
The work presented in this paper is focused on deductive group-theoretic transformations to develop the similarity solution of steady, laminar, incompressible quasi three dimensional boundary layer flow governing power law fluid. The application of one-parameter group reduces the number of independent variables to one and consequently the system of governing, highly non-linear partial differential equations reduces to a self similar, non-linear ordinary differential equation with appropriate auxiliary conditions. The numerical solution for a power law fluid considered for small cross flow is obtained systematically using MSABC in dimensionless form.
