Nonsimilarity solutions for mixed convection in power-law type non-Newtonian fluids from a vertical flat plate embedded in a porous medium are reported for a variable wall temperature of the power law form. The governing equations, including internal heat generation, are first transformed into a dimensionless form by the nonsimilar transformation and then solved by a finite-difference scheme. Numerical results are presented for the fluid velocity and temperature fields.
