Abstract

In this paper, we have presented the axisymmetric stagnation flow of a micropolar fluid in a moving cylinder. The governing equations of motion, microrotation and energy are simplified with the help of suitable similarity transformations. System of six nonlinear coupled differential equations has been solved analytically with the help of strong analytical tool known as homotopy analysis method. The physical features of various parameters have been discussed through graphs.
