The steady three-dimensional flow of condensation or spraying on inclined spinning disk is studied analytically. The governing nonlinear equations and their associated boundary conditions are transformed into the system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The series solution of the problem is obtained by utilizing the homotopy perturbation method (HPM). The velocity and temperature profiles are shown and the influence of Prandtl number on the heat transfer and Nusselt number is discussed in detail. The validity of our solutions is verified by the numerical results. Unlike free surface flows on an incline, this through flow is highly affected by the spray rate and the rotation of the disk.

The purpose of this study is to implement a new analytical method (the DTM-Padé technique, which is a combination of the differential transform method (DTM) and the Padé approximation) for solving Navier–Stokes equations. In this letter, we will consider the DTM, the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) and the Padé approximant for finding analytical solutions of the three-dimensional viscous flow near an infinite rotating disk. The solutions are compared with the numerical (fourth-order Runge–Kutta) solution. The results illustrate that the application of the Padé approximants in the DTM and HPM is an appropriate method in solving the Navier–Stokes equations with the boundary conditions at infinity. On the other hand, the convergence of the obtained series from DTM-Padé is greater than HPM-Padé.

In this study, a combination of the hybrid Chebyshev spectral technique and the homotopy perturbation method is used to construct an iteration algorithm for solving nonlinear boundary value problems. Test problems are solved in order to demonstrate the efficiency, accuracy and reliability of the new technique and comparisons are made between the obtained results and exact solutions. The results demonstrate that the new spectral homotopy perturbation method is more efficient and converges faster than the standard homotopy analysis method. The methodology presented in the work is useful for solving the BVPs consisting of more than one differential equation in bounded domains.
