The governing partial differential equations are reduced to ordinary differential equations by a similarity transformation and hence solved by using Homotopy Analysis Method. The effect of thermal radiation is considered in the energy equation and the variations of dimensionless surface temperature as well as the heat transfer characteristics with various values of Prandtl number, thermocapillarity number, radiation parameter are graphed and tabulated.(Abstract by authors) date: 2011 date_type: published pagerange: 108-113 event_title: UMT International Annual Symposium on Sustainability Science and Management (UMTAS 2011) Empowering Science, Technology and Innovation Towards a Better Tomorrow event_location: Permai Hotel, Kuala Terengganu, Malaysia event_dates: 11-13 July 2011 event_type: conference refereed: TRUE citation: Raziana Che Aziz, and Ishak Hashim, (2011) Effects of thermal radiation in a thermocapillarity thin film flow on an unsteady stretching sheet.
