The Magnetic Field

In this study, the hydrodynamic characteristics are investigated for magneto-micropolar fluid flow through an inclined channel of parallel plates with constant pressure gradient. The lower plate is maintained at constant temperature and upper plate at a constant heat flux. The governing equations which are continuity, momentum and energy are are solved numerically by Explicit Runge-Kutta. The effect of characteristic parameters is discussed on velocity and microrotation in different diagrams. The nonlinear parameter affected the velocity microrotation diagrams. An increase in the value of Hartmann number slows down the movement of the fluid in the channel. The application of the magnetic field induces resistive force acting in the opposite direction of the flow, thus causing its deceleration. Also the effect of pressure gradient is investigated on velocity and microrotation in different diagrams.
