Abstract

In this paper, the couette flow of fluid with variable viscosity is studied analytically by using Homotopy Pertubation Method (HPM). At first the basic idea of Homotopy Pertubation Method (HPM) is presented. The mathematical formulation and application of HPM to nonlinear problem are presented in section three. In order to check the validity of solution the analytical results are compared with exact ones for various numerical cases. The good agreement between exact method and Homotopy Pertubation Method has been assures us about the solution accuracy.
