Abstract

The present work is devoted to the study of magnetohydrodynamic micropolar fluid flow in a permeable channel with thermal radiation. The Rosseland approximation for thermal radiation is taken into account in the modelling of heat transfer. The governing equations are expressed in non-dimensional form. The Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) is briefly introduced and applied to derive the solution of nonlinear equations. The effects of various involved parameters like Reynolds number, microrotation parameter and Prandtl number on flow and heat transfer are discussed. Further, their effects on Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are also investigated from the physical point of view. Analytic solutions of the problem are obtained by HPM and a numerical technique bvp4c package MATLAB is applied to predict the graphs between different parameters.
