Abstract
This article considers the radiation effect on the flow of a Jeffery fluid with variable thermal con- ductivity. Similarity transformations are employed to convert the partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations. The resulting equations have been computed by the homotopy anal- ysis method (HAM). The numerical values of′ the local Nusselt numbers are also computed. The comparison with the numerical solutions of Θ (0) is presented. The obtained results are displayed and physical aspects have been examined in detail.
