An analysis is carried out to study the flow and heat transfer characteristics in the laminar boundary layer flow of a second order fluid over a linearly stretching sheet with internal heat generation or absorption. The governing partial differential equations are converted into ordinary differential equations by a similarity transformation. A numerical method, quasilinearization technique is used to study velocity and temperature profiles of the fluid. Heat transfer analysis is carried out for two types of thermal boundary conditions namely, (i) Prescribed Surface temperature (PST) and (ii) Prescribed wall Heat Flux (PHF). The effects of various parameters on flow and heat transfer are presented through graphs and discussed.
