Abstract
The heat absorption/generation and chemical reaction effects of unsteady flow of a viscous fluid over a stretching plate is analyzed. The governing PDF models are converted into an ODE model with the help of similarity variable and they are solved analytically using the homotopy analysis method (HAM) and numerically by Runge-Kutta fourth order method. The skin-friction coefficient, local Nusselt and local Sherwood numbers are tabulated for various values of the parameters. It is observed that the heat transfer gradient rises on strengthening the heat absorption/generation parameter and it suppresses on escalating the stretching ratio parameter. The mass transfer gradient increases on rising the chemical reaction parameter and it diminishes on rising the unsteady parameter.
