Abstract

A mathematical model for the creeping micropolar flow past a porous oblate spheroidal body is presented. The oblate spheroidal body possesses permeability and uniform stream velocity is assumed far away from the body and along its axis of symmetry. The flow inside the particle obeys the Darcy- Brinkman laws of porosity and the fluid outside is governed by the A.C. Eringen micropolar flow theory. Drag is determined with varying values of the permeability parameter and the coupling number . Also, the micropolar parameter is studied numerically.
