The velocity and temperature fields were solved using the Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM), taking a general surface temperature into consideration. The analytical series solution are presented and the numerical results obtained are tabulated. The effects of unsteadiness parameter, Prandtl number and temperature-dependent parameter in this study are discussed and presented graphically via the velocity and temperature profiles.
