Abstract

This study explores the flow of a second-grade fluid in divergent–convergent channel. The problem formulation is first developed, and then the corresponding nonlinear problem is solved by homotopy analysis method (HAM). The effects of different physical parameters on the velocity profile are shown. The numerical values of the skin friction coefficient for different values of parameters are tabulated.
