Abstract Finite difference method is applied to study the effect of migration in normal direction of particles in laminar boundary layer of gas-solid suspension over a flat plate. The influence of transversal force on flow parameters and characteristics of boundary layer is analyzed in particular. In the respect of difference method, switch-filter to eliminate the numerical oscillation is adopted.

Key words Gas-solid suspension, flat plate, transversal force
