Abstract

The flow of hydromagnetic dissipative micropolar fluid passing an exponentially stretching two-dimensional vertical sheet influenced by buoyancy force, radiation and slip effects is examined in this study. The dimensional modelled equations of the flow have been translated from partial into ordinary differential equations via similarity conversion approach while the solution to the transmuted equations is found using shooting technique alongside fourth order Runge-Kutta scheme. A strong relationship exists between the current results and the related published ones in literature for limiting situations. Various graphs have been sketched to discuss the impact of the key parameters as related to the fields of velocity, temperature and microrotation while tables are used to identify and explain the influences of some of the controlling parameters on the coefficient of the skin friction and Nusselt number for both Newtonian and non-Newtonian micropolar fluids. It is noticed that the growth of velocity slip lowers the fluid motion while the thermal slip behaves the same manner on the temperature field.
