Boundary layer stagnation-point flow of a third grade fluid over an exponentially stretching sheet
In this paper, the mixed convection steady boundary layer stagnation point flow and heat transfer of a third grade fluid over an exponentially stretching sheet is investigated. Both the analytical and numerical solutions are carried out. The analytical solutions are obtained through the homotopy analysis method (HAM) while the numerical solutions are computed by using the Keller box method (K-b). Comparison of the HAM and Keller-box methods is also given. The effects of important physical parameters are presented through graphs and the salient features are discussed.
