Abstract

An analysis is carried out to investigate the influence of the magnetic field over Carreau fluid flow and heat transfer in a liquid film on an unsteady stretching surface. The governing equations are converted to a system of boundary value problem (BVP) by using the similarity transforms. The differential equations are solved numerically using the modified Laplace decomposition method (MLDM) and the obtained results are compared with the existing schemes. An excellent agreement between them illustrates the accuracy of MLDM to the suggested model. The influence of the dimensionless governing parameters like magnetic field number, Prandtl number, unsteadiness parameter, Weissenberg parameter, and radiative number on velocity and temperature profiles is discussed in tabular form and shown through illustrative graphs.
