Summary
The heat transfer in the flow of a second-order fluid, obeying Coleman and Noll's constitutive equation based on the postulate of gradually fading memory, over a stretching sheet has been studied. The boundary layer characteristics of this flow have been obtained. The velocity boundary layer thickness decreases for increasing values of the parameterKC/v. The thermal boundary layer thickness decreases and the Nusselt numberNu x increases for increasing Prandtl numberP r orC.
