In this paper, we introduce a method based on replacement of the unknown function by truncated series of the well-known shifted Chebyshev (of third-kind) expansion of functions. We give an approximate formula for the integer derivative of this expansion. We state and prove some theorems on the convergence analysis. By means of collocation points the introduced method converts the proposed problem to solving a system of algebraic equations with shifted Chebyshev coefficients. As an application for this efficient numerical method, we employ it in solving the system of ordinary differential equation that describes the thin film flow and heat transfer with the effect of thermal radiation, magnetic field, and slip velocity.
