An analysis is carried out to study the flow and heat transfer characteristics in the laminar boundary layer flow of visco elastic fluid over a non-isothermal stretching sheet with internal heat generation. 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 such as Prandtl number, suction, visco-elasticity and temperature parameter on flow and heat transfer are presented through graphs and discussed.
