FRICTIONAL HEATING EFFECTS IN A VISCOELASTIC BOUNDARY-LAYER FLOW PASTA STRETCHING SHEET

The problem of viscoelastic boundary layer flow over a stretching shee t and heat transfer is examined. The non-similar boundary layer equati ons are solved to obtain the important physical quantities such as the skin friction coefficient and heat transfer coefficient. It is found that the heat transfer coefficient decreases with the non-Newtonian pa rameter as well as with the frictional heating parameter.
