This paper aims to investigate the time-dependent stagnation point flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid subjected to the modified Fourier law. The flow into a vertically stretched cylinder at the stagnation point is discussed. The heat flux model of a non-Fourier is intended for the transfer of thermal energy in fluid flow. The study is carried out on the surface heating source, namely the surface temperature. The developed nonlinear partial differential equation for regulating fluid flow and heat transport is transformed via appropriate similarity variables into a nonlinear ordinary differential equation. The development and analysis of convergent series solutions were considered for velocity and temperature. Prandtl number numerical values are computed and investigated. This study’s findings are compared to the previous findings. By making use of the bvp4c Matlab method, numerical solutions are obtained. Besides, high buoyancy parameter values are found to increase the fluid velocity for the stimulating approach. By improving the thermal relaxation time parameter values, heat transfer in the fluid flow decreases. The temperature field effects are displayed graphically.

A classical problem in free-surface hydrodynamics concerns flow in a channel, when an obstacle is placed on the bottom. Steady-state flows exist and may adopt one of three possible configurations, depending on the fluid speed and the obstacle height; perhaps the best known has an apparently uniform flow upstream of the obstacle, followed by a semiinfinite train of downstream gravity waves. When time-dependent behaviour is taken into account, it is found that conditions upstream of the obstacle are more complicated, however, and can include a train of upstream-advancing solitons. This paper gives a critical overview of these concepts, and also presents a new semianalytical spectral method for the numerical description of unsteady behaviour. doi:10.1017/S1446181121000341

Classes of exact solutions of the Navier–Stokes equations for incompressible fluid flow are explored. These have spatially-uniform velocity gradients at each instant, but often display complex temporal behaviour. Particular illustrative cases are described and related to previously-known solutions.
