Abstract: | In this study, the optimal homotopy analysis (OHAM) technique has been examined to solve the laminar magnetohydrodynamic flow (MHD flow) on the upper-convected Maxwell fluid on an isothermal porous stretch surface. A study on the effects of parameters like the relaxation time, suction/injection velocity, as well as the magnetic number on velocity over a sheet was conducted and these results are compared to the corresponding previously available results. It was observed that the thickness of the boundary layer is lowered by enhancing , , and values. Opposing this, it was observed that large values increase the magnituIIde. It is found that OHAM is an efficient method capable of giving a greater degree of accuracy in numerical values of flow parameters even after fewer approximations. |
