Abstract: This analysis deals with the numerical solutions for the compressible natural convection flow of two-phase dusty gas. In particular, it gives the solutions for the flow having spherical particles suspended in the gas (air) over the surface with sharp lateral curvatures. The governing equations are converted into dimensionless equations by using a set of suitable continuous transformations and solved through the implicit finite difference method. The effect of compressibility, dusty gas and sinusoidal waveform are discussed in detail in terms of local heat transfer rate, skin friction coefficient, velocity and temperature distributions. This investigation reveals the fact that the air–particle mixture reduces the rate of heat transfer, significantly.
