Abstract

In this paper analyzed the heat and mass transfer of the free convection flow in a micropolar fluid past an inclined stretching sheet. A uniform magnetic field is applied normal to the sheet with considering viscous dissipation and Radiation effect. The governing boundary value partial differential equation for micropolar fluid is converted into the system of ordinary differential equation by using similarity transformation and to solved numerically by using Fourth order classical Runge kutta method. The Dimensionless velocity, micro rotation, temperature, concentration profile find out graphically by using MATLab with different parameter values. In addition the Nusselt number, skin friction, Sherwood number and the wall couple stress are displayed in the table.
