Abstract

Abstract The steady non-isothermal flow of an Eyring–Powell fluid in a pipe is investigated using both perturbation and numerical methods. The results are presented for two viscosity models, namely the Reynolds model and the Vogel model. The shooting method is employed to compute the numerical solution. Criteria for validity of perturbation solution are developed. When these criteria are met, it is shown that the perturbation solution is in good agreement with the numerical solution. The influence of various emerging parameters on the velocity and temperature field is also shown.
