In this work, we address the issue of numerical analysis of laminar, steady, upward conjugate mixed convection flow of nanofluid (water/Cu) over an inclined flat plate embedded in a porous medium in presence of a transverse magnetic field. The non-Darcy's law is applied in the mathematical formulation for representing the nanofluid motion inside the porous media. The nonlinear formulation governing equations are transformed into a non-dimensional form by a group of non-similar transformations, and the system numerically solved using Differential Quadrature Method (DQM). Our results were compared with those computed by three different methods, and an excellent agreement was found. The temperature distribution of solid-nanofluid interface as well as the variations of velocity and of temperature within the boundary layers for different values of effective parameters are presented and discussed.
