Abstract

The aim of this paper is to examine the flow of an incompressible Jeffery fluid over a stretching surface. In addition the heat transfer process with power law heat flux and heat source in the presence of thermal radiation is considered. Homotopic solutions for velocity and temperature fields are developed. The related convergence analysis is carried out very carefully. The plotted results are discussed for flow and heat transfer characteristics.

► Mathematical model for Jeffery fluid is designed. ► Power law heat flux is taken. ► Analysis with heat source is performed. ► Solution to nonlinear problem is constructed. ► Convergence of developed series solution is ensured.
