AB - The aim of this paper is the numerical investigation of local thermal  non-equilibrium effects in the boundary layer forced convection of a third  grade fluid flowing in a porous medium confined by two parallel permeable  stretching isothermal plates. The horizontal velocity of stretching walls is  proportional to the longitudinal distance from origin while its vertical  suction component is uniform. The porous medium obey the Brinkman extended  Darcy momentum equation. The boundary layer non-linear partial differential  equations are transformed by similarity solution to a system of ordinary  differential equations. The numerical investigation make known that a flow  reversal come about the symmetry line of the channel attributable to the  stretching plate boundary which diminished in highly Darcy numbers. The fluid  flow field and temperature distribution of the solid and fluid phases are  studied based on the conductivity ratio, Darcy number, Prandtl number,  Reynolds number, and third order fluid parameters.
