Abstract
This paper discusses the hydromagnetic boundary layer flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid in a porous channel. Both suction and injection (blowing) cases are considered. Appropriate similarity transformations are invoked to convert the partial differential equations into ordinary ones. Homotopy analysis method (HAM) is used for the presentation of analytic solution of the nonlinear differential system. Graphical results provide the salient features of the embedded flow parameters which include the Reynolds number, the Deborah numbers, and the Hartman number. Comparison between the existing numerical solution in a Maxwell fluid and present deduced series solution in a limiting sense is excellent.
