The nonlinear partial differential equations governing the flow and thermal fields are expressed in dimensionless form with the help of suitable non-similar transformations. The mathematical complexities in obtaining non-similar solutions at the leading edge of the streamwise coordinate as well as non-similarity variable ? have overcome by using the implicit finite difference scheme in conjunction with Quasi-linearization technique by choosing an appropriate finer step sizes along the streamwise direction. The effects of various dimensionless physical parameters on velocity and thermal fields are analysed. 2016 Elsevier LtdInfluence of mixed convection in an exponentially decreasing external flow velocityArticle
