Abstract

The three-dimensional flow induced by a stretching sheet has been reported when both thermaldiffusion and diffusion-thermo effects are present. Jeffery fluid model has been selected as a non-Newtonian fluid model in view of its promising applications in polymer industry. Convective boundary conditions are invoked in the present analysis to make it more interesting for the readers. Suitable variables are utilized to obtained the system of ordinary differential equations. An efficient approach namely HAM has been used to compute the solution. Influences of various physical parameters involved in the momentum, concentration and heat transfer analysis are analyzed. Comparison with the already published work is shown.
