An analysis has been carried out for the heat transfer on steady boundary layer flow of a secondgrade fluid bounded by a stretching sheet. The magnetohydrodynamic nature of the fluid is considered in the presence of Hall and ion-slip currents. The nonlinear mathematical problem is computed by a powerful tool, namely, the homotopy analysis method (HAM). A comparative study between the present and existing limiting results is carefully made. Convergence regarding the obtained solution is discussed. Skin friction coefficients and Nusselt number are analyzed. Effects of embedded parameters on the dimensionless velocities and temperature are examined

Grade Fluid

This work describes the series solution of two-dimensional flow and heat transfer of a second grade fluid in the presence of radiation. The governing partial differential equations are reduced into ordinary differential equations by appropriate similarity tranformation. The series solutions of the resulting ordinary differential equations are obtained by using the homotopy analysis method (HAM). The convergence of the solution is discussed explicitly. The influence of pertinent parameters on the velocity and temperature is graphically displayed and discussed. Numerical values of the skin friction coefficient and the Nusselt number are also tabulated

In this work, the homotopy analysis method is applied to enable discussion of the three-dimensional shrinking flow of Jeffrey fluid in a rotating system. The fluid is electrically conducting in the presence of a uniform applied magnetic field, and the induced magnetic field is neglected. The similarity transformations reduce the nonlinear partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations. The convergence of the obtained solutions is checked. Graphs are plotted and discussed for various parameters of interest.

AbstractThis investigation analyses a three dimensional flow and mass transfer of a second grade fluid over a porous stretching wall in the presence of suction or injection. The equations governing the flow are attained in terms of partial differential equations. A similarity transformation has been utilized for the transformation of partial differential equations into the ordinary differential equations. The solutions of the nonlinear systems are given by the homotopy analysis method (HAM). A comparative study with the previous results of a viscous fluid has been made. The convergence of the series solution has also been considered explicitly. The influence of admissible parameters on the flows is delineated through graphs and appropriate results are presented. In addition, it is found that instantaneous suction and injection reduce viscous drag on the stretching sheet. It is also shown that suction or injection of a fluid through the surface is an example of mass transfer and it can change the flow field.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to study the heat and mass transfer with Soret-Dufour effects for the magnetohydrodynamic three-dimensional flow of second grade fluid in the rotating frame of reference. Design/methodology/approach – Series solution is obtained by homotopy analysis method. Findings – Increase in Soret number, Schmidt number and Dufour number, the heat transfer increases and mass transfer decreases. Effects of Prandtl and Eckert numbers are qualitatively similar as they assist the temperature profile and reduce the concentration of species. Increase in the length of the channel versus height increases the temperature profile but decreases the concentration field. Increase in the second grade fluid parameter causes reduction in both the temperature and concentration fields. The heat flux values at the lower plate are smaller than the values at the upper plate, whereas the situation is opposite in the case of mass transfer. Originality/value – These findings will be useful for the fluid flow in porous channel.

We investigated an axisymmetric unsteady two-dimensional flow of nonconducting, incompressible second grade fluid between two circular plates. The similarity transformation is applied to reduce governing partial differential equation (PDE) to a nonlinear ordinary differential equation (ODE) in dimensionless form. The resulting nonlinear boundary value problem is solved using homotopy analysis method and numerical method. The effects of appropriate dimensionless parameters on the velocity profiles are studied. The total resistance to the upper plate has been calculated.
