Abstract
This paper represents steady two-dimensional boundary layer flow of micropolar fluid flow with impact of convective heat transfer and buoyancy force investigated numerically. The shrinking velocity has been expected to fluctuate linearly with the existence of a fixed point on the sheet. With the assistance of similarity transformations, the governing partial differential equations are transformed into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations; these nonlinear ODEs are solved numerically by using the variational finite element method. The current numerical results are obtained from the variational finite element method and compared with the previously published literature work, with which it exists in good agreement. The impact of the flow monitoring parameters on velocity, microrotation and temperature profiles is examined graphically and discussed. The skin friction coefficient and Nusselt numbers are impacts from adjusting various values of the physical parameters and relevant features which are studied.
