چکیده

The present paper deals with the study of fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics occurring during the melting process due to a stretching surface in micropolar fluid with thermal radiation. A uniform magnetic field is applied normal to surface. The governing equations representing fluid flow have been transformed into nonlinear ordinary differential equations using similarity transformation. The equations thus obtained have been solved using Runge–Kutta Fehlberg fourth-fifth order method with shooting technique. The effects of the radiation parameter on the fluid flow, couple stress coefficient and heat transfer characteristics, have been illustrated graphically and discussed in detail. Significant change was observed in the heat transfer with respect to thermal radiation parameter.
