Abstract

In this article, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) mixed convection in an exponentially stretchable surface saturated with viscous fluid has been studied. BVPh 2.0 is employed which is mathematica-based algorithm created on the basis of optimal homotopy analysis method (OHAM). Adequate transformations are utilized for the conversion of governing system into nonlinear ordinary differential system. Convergence of BVPh 2.0 results is demonstrated through tabular values of squared residual errors. Graphical analysis is executed for broad range of governing parameters. It has been revealed an increase in buoyancy leads to the growth of boundary layer width. Further results predict the heat infiltration into the fluid increases as Brownian motion and Biot number enlarges. Mathematically this work exhibits the potential of BVPh 2.0 for nonlinear differential systems.
