Abstract

The present study deals creeping flow of a micropolar fluid past a sphere coated with thin fluid film. On fluid-film interface we used non-zero spin boundary condition for the micro-rotation vector. Thevariation of drag force with respect to different parameters is studied and some previous results deduced from present analysis.
