Abstract
The theory of micropolar fluids due to Eringen is used to formulate a set of boundary layer equations for the flow of an incompressible, constant density micropolar fluid in the vicinity of a two dimensional stagnation point. Numerical results are presented illustrating the description of the heat transfer characteristics and their dependence on the material parameters. The wall values of the thermal functions are tabulated for wide ranges of values of the material parameters and Prandtl numbers of the fluid.
