In this research paper, the Homotopy Analysis Method is used to investigate the twodimensional electrical conduction of a magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) Jeffrey Fluid across a stretching sheet under various conditions, such as when electrical current and temperature are both present, and when heat is added in the presence of a chemical reaction or thermal radiation. Applying similarity transformation, the governing partial differential equation is transformed into terms of nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations. The Homotopy Analysis Method is used to solve a system of ordinary differential equations. The impact of different numerical values on velocity, concentration, and temperature is examined and presented in tables and graphs. The fluid velocity reduces as the retardation time parameter(2) grows, while the fluid velocity inside the boundary layer increases as the Deborah number () increases. The velocity profiles decrease when the magnetic parameter M is increased. The results of this study are entirely compatible with those of a viscous fluid. The Homotopy Analysis Method calculations have been carried out on the PARAM Shavak high-performance computing (HPC) machine using the BVPh2.0 Mathematica tool.

This study is concerned with the effect of thermal radiation on the unsteady mixed convection flow of a Jeffrey fluid past a porous vertical stretching surface. The arising problems of flow and heat transfer are solved analytically by employing homotopy analysis method (HAM). It is observed that the flow field is influenced appreciably by the unsteadiness parameter ζ , suction parameter S, mixed convection parameter λ , Deborah number β , Prandtl number Pr, and the radiation parameter Nr. Our performed computations depict that the heat transfer rate is increased with increasing values of Pr, Nr, and ζ

ABSTRACTMixed convection flow of second grade fluid bounded by a permeable stretching surface is discussed. Soret and Dufour effects are also present. Series solutions for the resulting problems are made using homotopy analysis method (HAM). Analysis has been carried out for the effects of embedded parameters on the velocity, temperature and concentration fields. Numerical values of Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are computed and discussed.

This article deals with the analytical study of MHD flow and heat transfer over a permeable stretching sheet via homotopy analysis method (HAM). The effect of thermal radiation is included in the energy equation, while velocity and thermal slips are included in the boundary conditions. The governing boundary layer equations are transformed into a set of ordinary differential equations by means of similarity transformations. The effects of different parameters on the flow field and heat transfer characteristics are examined. The results obtained were shown to compare well with the numerical results and for some special cases with the published data available in the literature, which are in favorable agreement. Keywords: MHD; Slip flow; Stretching sheet; Thermal radiation; Homotopy analysis method
