【 摘 要 】
In this study, we analyzed the three-dimensional flow of Williamson (pseudoplastic) fluids upon a linear porous stretching sheet. The thermal radiation impact was taken into account. The transformed non-linear equations were solved by the homotopy analysis method (HAM). The influence of the embedded parameters tretching parameter, Williamson parameter, porosity parameter, thermal radiation parameter, thermophoresis parameter, Brownian motion parameter, Prandtl number and Biot number are presented on velocity, temperature and concentration functions in the graphs and explained in detail. The velocity function along the x-direction reduces with the impact of the stretching, porosity and Williamson parameters. Velocity along the y-direction increases with the stretching parameter, while it reduces with the porosity and Williamson parameters. The effect of Skin friction, heat transfer and mass transfer are shown numerically. The numerical values of surface drag force and the impact of different parameters are calculated and it is observed that increasing the stretching parameter and the porosity parameter reduces the surface drag force, while increasing the Williamson parameter augments the surface drag force. Higher values of the stretching parameter, the Prandtl number and the radiation parameter enhance the heat transfer rate, while the augmented value of the thermophoresis and Brownian motion parameters reduces the heat transfer rate, where higher values of the stretching parameter, thermophoresis and Brownian motion parameters enhance the mass transfer rate.
