摘要:The present investigation is carried for the problem of boundary layer stagnation point flow and heat transfer of couple stress fluid containing nanoparticles and flowing over an exponentially stretching surface in a porous medium. The governing equations of couple stress fluid model for velocity, temperature and nanoparticle profiles are given under boundary layer approach. The nonlinear partial differential equations are simplified by using similar transformations. The analytical solutions of simplified equations are found with the help of homotopy analysis method. The convergence of the HAM solutions has been discussed by plotting - curves and also through homotopy pade approximation. The physical features of pertinent parameters have been discussed through graphs.
