Abstract

An attempt is made in this study to investigate the problem of micropolar fluid flow in a porous medium theoretically. Employing the Berman’s similarity solution, the model equations governing the flow is transformed into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equation and solved using Temimi-Ansari method. Expressions for the velocity and micro-rotation profiles are obtained under the impressions of diverse parameters affecting the flow problem. Using symbolic computation software Mathematica, the nondimensional equations are solved numerically using the Keller Box scheme. Comparison between the analytical solution obtained by TAM and the numerical result are compared with results in literature to observe rapid convergence. Findings from the study showed in the presence of
