Similarity analysis of MHD flow field and heat transfer of a second grade convection flow over an unsteady stretching sheet

چکیده
Unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of a second grade fluid over a stretching sheet is a focus of this steady. Surface tension is considered to be varies linearly with temperature. The stretching velocity is defined in (Liu and Andersson in Int. J. Therm. Sci. 47(6):766-772, 2008). Similarity transformation reported by Abbas et al. (Math. Comput. Model. 48:518-526, 2008) are used to develop nonlinear system of differential equations coupled in velocity and temperature fields. The system is solved by the homotopy-analysis method (HAM), while the effects of different parameters such as the unsteadiness parameter S, film thickness, Hartmann numberMa, Prandtl number Pr, Thermocapillary numberM, heat flux –θ ′(0), surface skin-friction coefficient f ′′(0), free surface temperature θ (1) for flow field, and heat transfer are studied in this article.
