Solving the Boundary Layer Flow of an Eyring-Powell Non-Newtonian Fluid
Abstract
In this paper, the Rational Jacobi (RJ) collocation method is proposed to approximate the solution of the boundary layer flow of an Eyring-Powell fluid over a stretching sheet. This equation is nonlinear and by applying Quasilinearization method (QLM), the equation is converted into a sequence of linear ordinary differential equations (ODE) converging to the solution of the nonlinear equation. Unlike other methods, instead of truncation in domain, the infinity condition is satisfied implicitly. As a result, using the proposed method, the model is converted to a system of linear algebraic equations. The effect of different parameters on the velocity profile is also presented.
