This paper aims to present complete analytic solution to heat transfer of a micropolar fluid
through a porous medium with radiation. Homotopy analysis method (HAM) has been
used to get accurate and complete analytic solution. The analytic solutions of the system
of nonlinear ordinary differential equations are constructed in the series form. The convergence
of the obtained series solutions is carefully analyzed. The velocity and temperature
profiles are shown and the influence of coupling constant, permeability parameter and the
radiation parameter on the heat transfer is discussed in detail. The validity of our solutions
is verified by the numerical results (fourth-order Runge–Kutta method and shooting
method).
