Description

Exact solution of the problem considered in [1] is used to compute the eigenvalues required in the analytical solution of laminar thermally developing forced convection between parallel-plates in slip flow. A Mathematica statement is given that permits the straight forward reproduction of these results, at any Knudsen number, Kn.
