Abstract







Hydromagnetic flow and heat transfer of an incompressible electrically conducting micropolar fluid past a semi-infinite stretching non-isothermal porous plate embedded in porous medium in the presence of heat generation are investigated. The resulting non-linear ordinary differential equations are solved numerically by a shooting method. The effects of the magnetic parameter (M) , the permeability parameter (R) , the wall suction parameter (fw )and the heat generation parameter (α) on the velocity , the micro-rotation velocity and the temperature are shown graphically and thereafter are discussed. The corresponding local wall shear stress, local wall couple stress and local Nusselt number are shown in tabular form.
