Momentum and Heat Transfer Over a Continuously Moving Surface with a Parallel Free Stream in a Viscoelastic Fluid

摘要

The flow and heat transfer characteristics for a continuous moving surface in a viscoelastic fluid are investigated. Constitutive equations of viscoelastic fluid obey the second-grade model. Analytic expressions to velocity and temperature have been developed by employing homotopy analysis method. The criterion to the convergence of the Solution is properly discussed. Furthermore, the Values of skin friction coefficient and the local Nusselt number have been computed and discussed.
