Abstract
This article introduces two well-known computational techniques for solving the time-fractional system of nonlinear equations of unsteady flow of a polytropic gas. The methods suggested are the modified forms of the variational iteration method and the homotopy perturbation method by the Elzaki transformation. Furthermore, an illustrative scheme is introduced to verify the accuracy of the available techniques. A graphical representation of the exact and derived results is presented to show the reliability of the suggested approaches. It is also shown that the findings of the current methodology are in close harmony with the exact solutions. The comparative solution analysis via graphs also represents the higher reliability and accuracy of the current techniques.
