DOI 10.1134/s1063784218110026
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Abstract The flow of so-called nanofluid (a dispersed mixture of liquid and nanoscale particles) in a boundary layer is considered within the framework of the diffusion approximation. The cases causing incompressibility of a nanofluid are analyzed. A self-similar problem is formulated and solved using a numerical method. Some of the calculation results illustrating the nature of nanofluid behavior in a boundary layer on a longitudinally streamlined plate under different temperature regimes are discussed.
