ON THE STUDY OF VISCOUS FLUID DUE TO EXPONENTIALLY SHRINKING SHEET IN THE PRESENCE OF THERMAL RADIATION

ABSTRACT
In this paper, the effect of radiation on heat transfer in boundary layer flow over an exponentially shrinking sheet is investigated analytically. The similarity transformations are used to transform the partial differential equations to ordinary ones, and an analytical solution is obtained using the homotopy perturbation method. The heat transfer characteristics for different values of the Prandtl number, Eckert number, and radiation number are analyzed and discussed. Finally, the validity of results are verified by comparing with the existing numerical results. Results are presented in tabulated forms to study the efficiency and accuracy of the homotopy perturbation method.
