Abstract

An analysis of the steady two-dimensional boundary layer flow of a micropolar fluid through a porous medium bounded by a porous plate by using a generalized Darcy’s law is considered. Numerical solution for velocity field has been derived and the effect parameter of the problem is discussed.
