Abstract
The current study investigates the laminar flow of boundary layer using a porous surface shrinking exponentially under varying magnetic field, suction/injection, radiation on velocity and thermal slips. The dimensionless nonlinear differential equations were also defined in terms of governing partial differential equations and applying similarity transformations. The equations were analytically solved following the homotopy analysis method (HAM). An excellent agreement is observed in comparison with theavailable literature in special case (Skin friction coefficient). In the current study, an analytic solution is obtained for the laminar incompressible MHD boundary layer viscous fluid flow problem on the exponentially electrically conducting porous shrinking surface. The impact of different parameters like injection/suction, Prandtl number, radiation, velocity slip, thermal slip, as well as the magnetic field on different velocity and temperature values have been presented graphically, and have been discussed in detail. The f″(0) skin friction rises with higher suction parameter s(>0) values, magnetic parameter M but it decreases when the slip parameter value is increased. Whereas heat transfer rate −θ′(0) rises with an increasing M, s and λ..
