✦ Synopsis

This article describes the mixed convection flow of a non-Newtonian fluid past a wedge. An incompressible power-law fluid occupies the porous space. The arising mathematical problem has been solved by homotopy analysis method (HAM). Convergence of the derived solution is checked. The local skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number are also discussed.
