EFFECT OF RADIATION AND CHEMICAL REACTION ON HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER OF MHD VISCO-ELASTIC FLUID FLOW OVER AN EXPONENTIALLY STRETCHING SHEET THROUGH POROUS MEDIUM

In this paper, we analyze the heat and mass transfer of MHD visco-elastic flow through porous medium in presence of thermal radiation and chemical reaction over an exponentially stretching sheet. The governing equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations by using suitable similarity transformations. By using Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM), the transformed equations are solved analytically. The convergence of obtained series solutions is explicitly examined. The results are explained graphically for the effect of various physical parameters such as magnetic parameter, Prandtl number, radiation parameter, chemical reaction parameter, Schmidt number etc. for the velocity, temperature and concentration.
