Abstract The paper presents the results of modeling the heat transfer process in a channel filled with a porous medium. Moreover, the porosity changes according to the specified law along one of the coordinates. It is shown that an element with anisotropic porosity has better heat transfer characteristics in comparison with an element with a homogeneous porous structure.

An analysis is performed to study the heat transfer characteristics of steady mixed convection flow over a permeable vertical flat plate embedded in an anisotropic fluid-saturated porous medium. The effects of uniform suction and injection on the flow field and heat transfer characteristics are numerically studied by employing an implicit finite difference Keller-box method. It is found that dual solutions exist for both assisting and opposing flows. The results indicate that suction delays the boundary layer separation, while injection accelerates it.
