Effects of thermal radiation and suction/injection on magnetohydrodynamic boundary layer flow of a micropolar fluid past a wedge embedded in a porous stratum. (English) Zbl 1468.76079

The authors investigate the effects of thermal radiation and suction or injection on two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic laminar boundary layer flow of a micropolar fluid past a wedge embedded in a porous stratum. The fluid is assumed to be viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting micropolar fluid. The radiative heat flux in the energy equation is described by Rosseland approximation. The governing partial differential equations are derived and transformed using a similarity transformation. The transformed equations are solved using MATLAB bvp4c code. Numerical results are presented graphically for the distribution of velocity, microrotation and temperature profiles with in the boundary layer.
Reviewer is of the opinion that the authors should compare the reported results with the ones from the open literature for some particular values of the governing parameter.
