Abstract
The effects of thermal radiation on free convection in a non-Newtonian fluid over a vertical cone embedded in a porous medium in the presence of heat generation are studied. By using similarity transformations, the governing equations describing the problem are transformed to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations, which are solved numerically. The results are presented in the graphical form. The effects of various physical parameters and of the local Nusselt number on the velocity and the temperature profiles are discussed.
