Abstract

This article studies the three-dimensional boundary layer flow of an elasticoviscous luid over a stretching surface. Velocity of the stretching sheet is assumed to be ime-dependent. Effect of mass transfer with higher order chemical reaction is further onsidered. Computations are made by the homptopy analysis method (HAM). Convergence f the obtained series solutions is explicitly analyzed. Variations of embedding arameters on the velocity and concentration are graphically discussed. Numerical computations f surface mass transfer are reported. Comparison of the present results with he numerical solutions is also given.
