Abstract
In this paper, the steady flow and heat transfer of an incompressible electrically conducting micropolar fluid through a parallel plate channel is investigated. The upper and lower plate have been kept at the two constant different temperatures and the plates are electrically insulated. The applied magnetic field is perpendicular to the flow, while the Reynolds number is significantly lower than one i.e. the considered problem is in induction-less approximation. The general equations that describe the discussed problem under the adopted assumptions are reduced to ordinary differential equations and closed-form solutions are obtained. The influences of each of the governing parameters on velocity, heat transfer on the plates (Nusselt number), flow rate and skin friction are discussed with the aid of graphs.
