A comprehensive appraisal on a mixed convection boundary layer flow over a plate

This study was a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) using the PRISMA model by identifying various appropriate and relevant kinds of literature to identify a mixed convection boundary layer flow induced in a nanofluid due to a stretching sheet. The analysis is conducted up to the 5th order of approximation, exploring the effects of various physical parameters like Prandtl number, Grashof number, suction/injection parameter, thermal radiation parameter, heat generation/absorption coefficient, and Hartman number on dimensionless velocity, temperature, and heat transfer rate. The results are quantitatively examined and presented through graphical representations. Data was obtained using specifications determined by analyses from several sites, including Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, IEEE Xplore, Scopus, Jstor, ResearchGate, and other platforms since SLR was used to analyse papers that came from these databases. In total of 46 articles were retrieved; only 15 articles were relevant to this study. The results showed that three main research themes have been found, namely the purpose of study, design of the plate and methods of the research used.
