Abstract
The transient heat transfer in forced convection for simultaneously de veloping laminar flow inside a parallel-plate channel is studied by so lving the steady momentum equation with the generalized integral trans form technique and the transient energy equation through a hybrid appr oach that combines the integral transform method with a second-order a ccurate finite-differences scheme. Semi-analytical results are then pr esented for the fluid bulk temperature and local Nusselt number along the channel as a function of position and time.
