Summary

The slip-flow of a Newtonian fluid past a linearly stretching sheet is considered. The partial slip is controlled by a dimensionless slip factor, which varies between zero (total adhesion) and infinity (full slip). An exact analytical solution of the governing Navier-Stokes equation is found, which is formally valid for all Reynolds numbers.
