• Constitutive equations of micropolar fluid and heat transfer are employed.
• Magnetic effect on velocity and temperature profile of micropolar fluid is observed.
• Dual solution is reported in the region of stagnation point flow.
• A numerical technique i.e. Chebyshev Spectral Newton Iterative Scheme is applied to obtain the desire results.
Hydromagnetic stagnation point flow and heat transfer over a nonlinearly stretching/shrinking surface of micropolar fluid is investigated. The numerical simulation is carried out through Chebyshev Spectral Newton Iterative Scheme, after transforming the governing equations into dimensionless boundary layer form. The dual solutions are reported for different values of magnetic and material parameters against the limited range of stretching/shrinking parameter. It is also noted that second solution only occurs for the negative values of stretching/shrinking parameter, whereas for the positive values unique solution exists. The effects of dimensionless parameters are described through graphs. It is seen that the flow and heat transfer rates can be controlled through the material parameter and magnetic force.
