Abstract

The current article discuss the interaction between the Ohmic heating and chemical reaction impact on MHD micropolar fluid flow past a stretching surface in the existence of chemical reaction using Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg method (RKF-45) along with the shooting procedure. By applying some similarity transformations, the governing equations were changed to ODEs. Numerical consequences were calculated for many values of pertinent factors on flow, angular velocity, thermal, mass transfer are exposed graphically and the numerical outcomes of the skin friction, couple stress at the wall, Nusselt number, Sherwood number are entered in tabulated form. With an increase of the material parameter, the velocity, couple stress, Sherwood number, Nusselt number, and temperature, concentration, and shear stress increase, while temperature, concentration, and shear stress decreases.
