The present study investigates numerically MHD flow near the stagnation point of micropolar fluid through a shrinking sheet containing nanoparticles under the influence of chemical reaction and external heat. The study is an attempt to investigate the flow behaviour of micropolar nanofluid because of its importance in heat transfer process in industries as well as cooling systems. The governing equations are converted to nonlinear ordinary differential equations by implementing similarity transformations. Numerical results are investigated in the form of figures and tables by using MATLAB built in solver bvp4c for various dimensionless parameters. The impacts of external heat parameter on temperature and chemical reaction factor on concentration of the nanofluid are illustrated in the form of graphs. It is observed that the temperature of the nanofluid and nanoparticle volume distributions increase when Biot number attain larger values. Rise in Thermophoretic parameter increases the nanoparticles concentration in the boundary layer. Numerical data are presented for Nusselt number and Sherwood number.
