Abstract

The detailed analysis on the flow of MHD fluid in double stratification medium across a stretching sheet with exponential permeability is examined in this research. The approximate analytical solution for the governing equations in steady state is found by using a new approximate analytical method called Ananthaswamy-Sivasankari Method (ASM) and Modified Homotopy Analysis Method (MHAM). The approximate analytical expressions for the dimensionless velocity, dimensionless temperature and dimensionless concentration are derived using these methods. The analytical and numerical results (previous work) are compared and there is a good agreement between our analytical results and numerical works. The impacts of several parameters including porosity, magnetic, suction and heat source parameters are shown in graphical representation. The error table for the physical parameter namely Nusselt number for various values of Prandtl number has been provided. Both ASM and MHAM are very useful to solve some other non-linear boundary value problems especially in MHD fluid flow
