AbstractThe present work explores the consequence of the flow of micropolar fluid in an inclined microchannel when exposed to linear radiation in presence of a magnetic field. The microchannel is embedded with a porous medium and the Darcy–Forchheimer model is implemented. The walls of the microchannel facilitate the simultaneous suction and injection of the micropolar fluid. A multiple slip regime and temperature jump conditions were assumed at the boundaries. The equations are modeled and nondimensionalized using nondimensional entities and further solved with the aid of the Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg method. Entropy generated in the medium and ratio of irreversibilities is also computed. Results so obtained deliberate that enhancement in Darcy number has caused an increment in entropy generation rate whereas the opposite nature is attained for the Bejan number. Magnifying the radiation parameter has resulted in diminishing the profile of entropy generation rate and Bejan number.
