Abstract
In this work an analysis of steady free convection flow of water at 4°C passing a vertical infinite porous plate in a rotating system is considered. Approximate solutions for the coupled nonlinear equations are obtained for the velocity and the temperature. The effect of E′ (Eckman number) is discussed, when P (Prandtl number)=11.4, which corresponds to water at 4°C.
