Flow of a viscoelastic fluid over a stretching sheet (1984)

Abstract
Rheologica Acta Rheol Acta Flow viscoelastic fluid over r h sheet Rajagopal and Gupta Department Mechanical Engineering University Pittsburgh Department Mechanical Engineering University Michigan Dearborn and Department Mathematics Indian Institute Technology Kharagpur Abstract This paper presents study the flow incompressible second order fluid past stretching sheet The problem has bearing some polymer processing application such the continuous extrusion polymer sheet from die Key words Second order fluid stretching sheet similarity solution Introduction The flow the boundary layer incompressible viscous fluid moving solid surfaces has been investigated Sakiadis Due the entrainment the ambient fluid this boundary layer quite different from that Blasius flow past flat plate Erickson Fan and Fox extended this problem the case which the transverse velocity the moving surface non zero with heat and mass transfer the boundary layer being taken into account These investigations have bearing the problem polymer sheet extruded continuously from die often tacitly assumed that the sheet inextensible but situations may arise the polymer industry which necessary deal with stretching plastic sheet pointed out McCormack and Crane Danberg and Fansler investigated the non similar solution for the flow the boundary layer past wall that stretched with velocity proportional the distance along the wall the free stream velocity being constant Gupta and Gupta analysed the heat and mass transfer c.
