Abstract

The theory of micropolar fluids due to Eringen is used to formulate a set of boundary layer equations for 2-dimensional flow of an incompressible, constant density micropolar fluid at a stagnation point on a moving wall. The governing boundary layer equations are solved numerically. The development of the velocity of distribution has been illustrated for several positive and negative values of the wall velocity. A discussion is provided for the dependence of the important flow characteristics on the material parameters.
