Keywords: Differential Equation, Boundary layer, stability, existence and uniqueness and Liapunov function.
In this paper, the physical properties of a coupled nonlinear differential equation of aninviscid flow at different values of Mach angle α, is presented. The governing partial differential equation is reduced using dimensionless variables into a system of coupled nonlinear differential equation, thereby, establishing the physical properties of existence and uniqueness of solutions and analyzing the stability using Liapunov function to obtain an asymptotic value.
