| Abstract: | An analysis is carried out to study the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of an incompressible micropolar fluid. The flow is induced by the noncoaxial rotations of constantly accelerated porous disk and a micropolar fluid. The influence of partial slip on the flow has been taken into consideration. Numerical solution of the governing flow problem is given by means of Newto's method. The important finding in this communication is the effects of partial slip on the velocity and microrotation vector. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 2010 |
