Stagnation point micropolar fluid flow between porous discs with uniform blowing

Abstract

The axially symmetric laminar incompressible micropolar fluid flow resulting from uniform blowing through two parallel discs has been investigated. The governing equations of momentum and angular momentum have been solved using shooting technique employing the method of adjoints. In comparison to the Newtonian fluid, the radial velocity decreases near the stagnation point while a contrary is observed near the plate with increase in micropolar effects in the fluid.
