Stagnation point flow and heat transfer of a micropolar fluid with uniform suction or blowing
The steady laminar flow of an incompressible non-Newtonian micropolar fluid impinging on a permeable flat plate with heat transfer is investigated. A uniform suction or blowing is applied normal to the plate, which is maintained at a constant temperature. Numerical solution for the governing nonlinear momentum and energy equations is obtained. The effect of the uniform suction or blowing and the characteristics of the non-Newtonian fluid on both the flow and heat transfer is presented and discussed.
