Abstract:
The effect of radiation on the boundary layer flow and heat transfer of a viscous fluid over an exponentially stretching sheet is studied. The homotopy analysis method (HAM) is employed to determine the convergent series expressions of velocity and temperature. The physical interpretation to these expressions is assigned through graphs. It is found that the effects of Prandtl and radiation numbers on the temperature are opposite.
