Abstract

Microthermopolar fluids are introduced as a subclass of microthermofluids. In this subclass micromotion consists of rigid rotation only. The local balance laws and the linear constitutive equations are extracted from the theory of microthermofluids. Restriction regarding the material coefficients appearing in the constitutive equations are deduced by thermodynamical considerations. The problem of Poiseuille flow between two parallel plates is solved.
