Abstract
This chapter describes the application of homotopy analysis method (HAM) to the nonlinear boundary value problems arising in nanofluid dynamics. The series solutions for some fundamental problems in fluid mechanics (including axisymmetric flow past a stretching sheet, unsteady boundary layer flow developed due to the impulsive motion of an extensible surface, squeezing flow between parallel disks and boundary layer flow of second grade fluid) involving nanofluids are computed and discussed.
