Abstract

The problem of a steady two dimensional MHD stagnation point flow and heat transfer of an incompressible micropolar fluid over a stretching surface in porous medium with radiation, heat generation/absorption and dissipation is investigated. The governing partial differential equations are transformed to ordinary differential equations using similarity transformation and the resulting ordinary differential equations are nonlinear. These nonlinear ordinary differential equations are then solved using Runge-Kutta method alongside the Shooting method. The effect of the included parameters on the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics are presented and discussed.
