Objective

 Analyzing flow between two parallel porous plates along with injection and suction.
 Top plate subjected to constant suction & bottom plate with constant injection.
 Examine the main stream flow behavior with help of velocity profile and shear
stress distribution using analytical and numerical methods.

Problem considerations
 Steady and incompressible flow
 Flow is laminar
 Constant pressure gradient driven main stream flow
 Body forces are neglected in both direction
 Viscosity is constant
 Vertical velocity is constant across the plate for suction and injection.
