In this article, a hybrid technique called homotopy perturbation Elzaki transform method has been applied to solve Navier-Stokes equation of fractional order. In the hybrid technique, homotopy perturbation method and Elzaki transform method are amalgamated. Three example problems are solved with a purpose to validate and demonstrate the efficacy of the present method. It is also demonstrated that the results obtained from the present method are in excellent agreement with the results by other methods. It is shown that the proposed method is found to be reliable, efficient and easy to implement for various related problems of science and engineering.non-linear partial differential equations are also solved by different authors [22,23] using modified HPM. The primary equation of movement of viscous fluid flow known as the NS equation has been presented in 1822 [24]. This equation portrays a few projections which include sea streams, fluid stream in channels, bloodstream and wind current around the wings of an airship. The NS equation was first carried out in 2005 in the fractional form in [25] by El-Shahed and Salem. The classical NS equation was answered by El-Shahed and Salem [25] by means of laplace transform (LT), finite Hankel transforms (FHT) and Fourier sine transform. A nonlinear fractional NS equation was solved analytically by Kumar et al. [26] by the combination of HPM with LT algorithm. Also the same NS equation was resolved by Ragab et al. [27] and Ganji et al. [28] by adopting homotopy analysis method. ADM was adopted by Birajdar [29] and Momani et al. [30] for the solution of fractional NS equation. Sunil Kumar et al. [31] achieved the analytical result of fractional NS equation by means of ADM and LT algorithm while Chaurasia and Kumar [32] solved the similar equation by the pairing of LT with FHT. The present paper gives an exact or approximate solution for the proposed problem by using HPETM.This article is planned as follows: some basic features of fractional calculus related to the titled problems have been presented in Sect. 2. Elzaki transform and elaborated form of the HPETM have been included in Sects. 3 and 4 respectively. In Sect. 5, three example problems are included to validate the effectiveness and exactness of the proposed method. Lastly, a conclusion is given in Sect. 6.
