Abstract

The present analysis deals with the steady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of a second grade fluid in the presence of radiation. By means of similarity transformation, the arising non-linear partial differential equations are reduced to a system of four coupled ordinary differential equations. The series solutions of coupled system of equations are constructed for velocity and temperature using homotopy analysis method (HAM). Convergence of the obtained series solution is discussed. The effects of various involved interesting parameters on the velocity and temperature fields are shown and discussed.
