Abstract
This paper is devoted to examine the thermally stratified mixed convection flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid. The stagnation point flow towards a stretching surface is discussed. The boundary layer flow and energy equations are employed. Resulting partial differential systems are converted into the ordinary differential systems. Convergent series solutions for velocity and temperature are developed and analyzed. Numerical values of Nusselt number is computed and examined. Comparison of present study is shown with the previous results. It is found that velocity decreases through the stratified effects.
