| Abstract | The flow and heat transfer of a micropolar fluid over an inclined permeable bed is investigated. The flow in the thin film region is governed by micropolar fluid model whereas the flow in the permeable bed is described by Darcy law. The expressions for the fluid velocity and the microrotation are obtained. When the Darcy number tends to zero, the results reduce to the corre sponding ones of Sajid et al. (2009) for the thin film flow of a micropolar fluid over an inclined rigid plane. The effect of permeability on the fluid velocity is discussed. It is observed that the magnitude of microrotation and the fluid velocity decreas es with increasing micropolar parameter K . |
