Abstract

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to focus on the stratified phenomenon through vertical stretching cylinder in the region of stagnation point with slip effects. Design/methodology/approach - Homotopy analysis method is used to find the series solutions of the governing equations. Findings - Velocity profile decreases with an increase in stratified parameters due to temperature and concentration. Velocity and thermal slips cause a reduction in the velocity profile. Thermally stratified and thermal slip parameters reduce the temperature field. Originality/value - The present analysis has not been existed in the literature yet.
