  • Abstract
    Computational and mathematical models provide an important compliment to experimental studies in the development of solar energy engineering in case of electroconductive magnetic micropolar polymers. Inspired by further understanding the complex fluid dynamics of these processes, we examine herein the nonlinear steady, hydromagnetic micropolar flow with radiation and heat source/sink effects included. The transformed nondimensional governing partial differential equations are solved with the RK fourth order with shooting technique subjected to appropriate boundary conditions. The characteristics of the embedded parameters are obtained and presented through graphs. Velocity and microrotation of the fluid decreased with enhancing values of material parameter and suction/injection parameter. Electric field parameter has ability to enhance velocity, but temperature shows opposite behaviour. Microrotation increases for both magnetic field and surface temperature parameters.
