“…The HPM is in fact a coupling of the traditional perturbation method and homotopy in topology [21]. This method was applied to axisymmetric flow over a stretching sheet [22], thermal boundary-layer problems in a semi-infinite plate [23], nonlinear JefferyHamel flow [24], coupled nonlinear partial differential equations [25], Abel integral equation [26], peristaltic flow of a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Newtonian fluid in an asymmetric channel [27], MHD flow over a nonlinear stretching sheet [28], generalized Burger and Burger-Fisher equations [29], wave and nonlinear diffusion equations [30], time-fractional reaction-diffusion equation of Fisher type [31], motion of a spherical solid particle in plane coquette fluid flow [32], and heat transfer of copper-water nanofluid flow between parallel plates [33]. Natural convection heat transfer of a copper-water nanofluid in a cold outer circular enclosure containing a hot inner sinusoidal circular cylinder in the presence of a horizontal magnetic field was investigated numerically using the control volume based finite element method (CVFEM) [34].…”
