An analysis is presented for the problem of heat transfer in a steady laminar stagnation point flow of an incompressible electrically conducting micropolar fluid impinging on a permeable flat plate with uniform suction/injection. A uniform magnetic field is applied normal to the plate. The effect of viscous dissipation is taken into account. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations. A numerical solution is obtained for the ordinary differential equations using the computational software Matlab. Results are shown in graphical form. The effect of the uniform suction or injection, magnetic parameter, material parameter on the flow and heat transfer are presented and discussed.
