Flow and Heat Transfer of Maxwell Fluid Over an Exponentially Stretching Sheet: A Non‐similar Solution

In this investigation, the boundary layer flow and heat transfer analysis in a Maxwell fluid over an exponentially continuous moving sheet are studied. The transformed boundary layer equations are solved numerically for a non‐similar solution using a shooting method with the Runge–Kutta algorithm. The purpose of this article is to look into the influence of the Deborah number on the velocity, temperature, and Nusselt number. The obtained results show that an increase in the Deborah number decreases the fluid velocity and boundary layer thickness. On the other hand, it increases the temperature and thermal boundary layer thickness. It is also found that the numerical results are in excellent agreement with the previous existing results for the case of a Newtonian fluid (λ = 0).
