Abstract: The steady flow of an incompressible Burger fluid near a stagnation-point over a linearly stretching surface is investigated. The two-dimensional flow equations are modelled and then simplified by employing boundary layer analysis. The solution to the arising nonlinear problem is computed in the whole spatial domain (0 ≤ η ≤ ∞). Interpretation of various emerging parameters is given through graphs for velocity and temperature fields. Furthermore tables are constructed in order to make a comparative study with the previous published results. Comparison shows an excellent agreement with the previous limiting investigations in the field.
