This study is devoted to investigate the steady fully developed natural convection flow in a vertical annular micro-channel having temperature dependent viscosity in the presence of velocity slip and temperature jump at the annular micro-channel surfaces. The governing equations of the motion are a set of ordinary differential equations and their analytical solutions in dimensionless form have been obtained for the temperature field and velocity field. The effect of various flow parameters entering into the problem is discussed with the aid of line graphs. During the course of numerical investigation, it is found that increase in viscosity variation parameter enhances the fluid velocity and velocity slip. Furthermore, an increase in viscosity variation parameter leads to increase in the volume flow rate and skin friction.
