Abstract:
The article presents the approximate analytical solutions of general nonlinear diffusion equation with fractional time derivative in the presence of an absorbent term and a linear external force obtained with the help of powerful mathematical tool like Homotopy Perturbation Method. By using initial value, the approximate analytical solutions of the equation are derived. The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. Numerical results for different particular cases are presented graphically. The anomalous behavior of nonlinear diffusivity in the presence or absence of external force and reaction term are calculated numerically and presented graphically.
