Present paper addresses the numerical study of Sisko fluid model over stretching cylinder with variable thermal conductivity. The governing equations are simplified by incorporating the boundary layer approximations. After employing suitable similarity transformations partial differential equations are reduced to ordinary differential equations. To obtain numerical solution shooting method in conjunction with Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method is used. For the analysis of model, variations due to different physical parameters involved in momentum and heat equations are reflected through graphs. Also, the effects of physical parameters on skin-friction coefficient and Nusselt number are represented through graphs as well as tables.

The combined effects of Joule and Newtonian heating in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of Jeffrey fluid over a stretching cylinder with heat source/sink are addressed. Suitable transformations are considered to reduce the non-linear boundary layer partial differential equations into the ordinary differential equations. Convergent series solutions of the resulting dimensionless problems are obtained. Effects of emerging physical parameters on the velocity and temperature profiles are examined. Comparison between viscous and Jeffrey fluids for different cases of flat plate and cylinder is made. Numerical values of skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number are tabulated and analyzed for different values of emerging parameters.

Two-dimensional flow of Jeffrey fluid by an inclined stretching cylinder with convective boundary condition is studied. In addition the combined effects of thermal radiation and viscous dissipation are taken into consideration. The developed nonlinear partial differential equations are reduced into the ordinary differential equations by suitable transformations. The governing equations are solved for the series solutions. The convergence of the series solutions for velocity and temperature fields is carefully analyzed. The effects of various physical parameters such as ratio of relaxation to retardation times, Deborah number, radiation parameter, Biot number, curvature parameter, local Grashof number, Prandtl number, Eckert number and angle of inclination are examined through graphical and numerical results of the velocity and temperature distributions.
