Scaling transformation for free convection flow of a micropolar fluid along a moving vertical plate in a porous medium with velocity and thermal slip boundary conditions

We study and discuss the effect of thermal slip on steady free convection flow of a viscous, incompressible micropolar fluid past a vertical moving plate in a saturated porous medium. The effect of viscous dissipation is incorporated in the energy equation. The associated partial differential equati...

The effect of viscous dissipation is incorporated in the energy equation.

It is found that the dimensional velocity and angular velocity decrease whilst the temperature increases with velocity slip parameter.
