                 Dividing Eq. (4.277) by M A and using Eq. (4.278) gives





                 because C A = (p A/M A).
                     In a similar manner, the energy balance equation can be determined:



                                                   \ w-'V  \j y  \j A^  /  *  £*•
                 where a = A/pc p and Q is the heat generation per unit volume due to the
                 chemical reactions (W nrf ), or Q= r^AH, where AH is the reaction heat
                  (J/rnol). The thermal conductivity of the mixture is A (W m~ K~ ), and c p is
                                      1   1
                 the specific heat (J kg"  KT ), or pc p = p Ac pA + p Bc pB.
                     Equations (4.279) and (4.280) are similar. Figure 4.37 shows a two-
                 dimensional boundary layer flow over a plane. Ignoring any chemical re-
                 actions and considering steady-state conditions, Eqs. (4.279) and (4.280)
                 give









                 Assuming laminar flow for a linear momentum equation in the x direction (an
                 approximation from the Navier-Stokes equations) gives





                 where v is the kinematic viscosity (m~7s).
                     Equations (4.281)-(4.283) have to be solved at the same time as the
                 continuity equation (4.278). The following dimensionless variables are
                 used:
