Theoretical study of non-Newtonian micropolar nanofluid flow over an exponentially stretching surface with free stream velocity

The computational analysis of the second-order micropolar stagnation point flow of nanofluid over an exponentially permeable stretching sheet is considered. The freestream velocity with the thermal slip effects is taken into account in this analysis. This model is developed on the basis of flow assumptions and reduced into partial differential equations before applying the boundary layer approximations. The governing equations as a mathematical model are simplified with the help of suitable transformations. The differential system is further solved by using the bvp4c. Both graphs and tables are used to report observations. The skin friction and Nusselt number are reported for both weak and strong concentrations. The magnitude of skin friction is noticed greater for strong concentration in comparison with weak concentration. Subject to couple stress, the values of skin friction are relatively high for the case of weak concentration in comparison with strong concentration. Micropolar profile admit the direct relation toward micropolar parameter and micro-gyration parameter. Both Sherwood number and Nusselt number admits higher values for strong concentration as compared to weak concentration.
