In this research, the analytical methods of the differential transform method (DTM), homotopy asymptotic method (HAM), optimal homotopy asymptotic method (OHAM), Adomian decomposition method (ADM), variation iteration method (VIM) and reproducing kernel Hilbert space method (RKHSM), and the numerical method of the finite difference method (FDM) for (analytical-numerical) simulation of 2D viscous flow along expanding/contracting channels with permeable borders are carried out. The solutions for analytical method are obtained in series form (and the series are convergent), while for the numerical method the solution is obtained taking into account approximation techniques of second-order accuracy. The OHAM and HAM provide an appropriate method for controlling the convergence of the discretization series and adjusting convergence domains, despite having a problem for large sizes of obtained results in series form; for instance, the size of the series solution for the DTM is very small for the same order of accuracy. It is hard to judge which method is the best and all of them have their advantages and disadvantages. For instance, applying the DTM to BVPs is difficult; however, solving BVPs with the HAM, OHAM and VIM is simple and straightforward. The extracted solutions, in comparison with the computational solutions (shooting procedure combined with a Runge–Kutta fourth-order scheme, finite difference method), demonstrate remarkable accuracy. Finally, CPU time, average error and residual error for different cases are presented in tables and figures.
