【 摘 要 】

The aim of the present study is to address the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) radiative flow of an incompressible Jeffrey fluid over a linearly stretched surface. Heat and mass transfer characteristics are accounted for in the presence of Joule heating and thermophoretic effects. Series solutions by the homotopy analysis method are constructed for the velocity, temperature and concentration fields. A convergence criterion for the series solutions is discussed. In addition, the numerical values of the skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are first computed and then analyzed.
