- Abstract
This paper deals with the nonisothermal boundary layer flow of Cross fluid due to a stretching sheet. Unlike previous studies on boundary layer flow of Cross fluid, a nonsimilar formulation is adopted to transform the boundary layer equations into nondimensional form. The problem is characterized by three dimensionless parameters, namely, the Deborah number, the Prandtl number, and dimensionless distance along the sheet. The transformed equations are simulated by a numerical scheme with the help of MAPLE software. The velocity and temperature profiles inside the boundary layer are calculated and shown graphically. The skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number at various axial stations are also tabulated for several values of Deborah number and Prandtl number.
