  • Abstract
    In this study, the features of Maxwell fluid flow through a stretching sheet (variable thickness) with heat source/sink and melting heat transfer are analyzed. Leading equations of the course are transmuted with suitable similarity transmutations and resolved the subsequent equations mathematically with shooting technique. The effects of the valid parameters on the regular profiles (velocity, concentration, temperature) are elucidated through graphs in two cases (presence and absence of melting). an‎d also, friction factor, transfer rates (mass, heat) are examined with the same parameters and the outcomes are presented in tabular form. A few of the findings are (a) the elastic parameter upsurges the velocity (b) heat source parameter raises the temperature (c) mass transfer rate is lowered by chemical reaction.
