MHD slip flow and heat transfer of UCM fluid with the effect of suction/injection due to stretching sheet: OHAM solution

In this study, the optimal homotopy analysis (OHAM) technique has been examined to solve the laminar magnetohydrodynamic flow (MHD flow) on the upper-convected Maxwell fluid on an isothermal porous stretch surface. A study on the effects of parameters like the relaxation time, suction/injection velocity, as well as the magnetic number on velocity over a sheet was conducted and these results are compared to the corresponding previously available results. It was observed that the thickness of the boundary layer is lowered by enhancing s, beta, and M values. Opposing this, it was observed that large beta values increase the f ''(0) magnituIIde. It is found that OHAM is an efficient method capable of giving a greater degree of accuracy in numerical values of flow parameters even after fewer approximations.
