Unsteady three‐dimensional boundary layer flow due to a stretching surface in a micropolar fluid

Abstract: SUMMARY In this paper, the unsteady three‐dimensional boundary layer flow due to a stretching surface in a viscous and incompressible micropolar fluid is considered. The partial differential equations governing the unsteady laminar boundary layer flow are solved numerically using an implicit finite‐difference scheme. The numerical solutions are obtained which are uniformly valid for all dimensionless time from initial unsteady‐state flow to final steady‐state flow in the whole spatial region. The equations for… Show more

“…The so-called stretching surface flow problem has been studied for variety of assumptions pertaining to surface velocity (linear/power law) and surface temperature (constant/variable)/ temperature flux for the simple reason that optimal quality of desired component squarely depends on the shear and heat transfer rate at the sheet. The problem has also been discussed for non-Newtonian fluid, Ferro-fluid and micropolar fluid and also by incorporating physical features like suction/injection, MHD, chemical reaction, and so forth [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Recently, Liao [10,11] discovered multiple solutions for the flow over both impermeable and permeable stretching sheets.…”

“…Rahman [29] and Ishak et al [30] have examined the boundary layer flow of micropolar fluid over isothermal surface in the presence thermal radiation, viscous dissipation and Joule heating. Further, the examination of micropolar fluid on bi-directional stretching surface has been carried out by Ali et al [31] and Ahmad et al [32]. The result shows that the boundary layer configuration is significantly affected by the material parameter.…”
