A boundary layer analysis has been presented for the momentum and heat transfer characteristics of a thermomicropolar fluid flowing through a channel which consists of a portion with parallel walls (velocity \(U_ 0\) and wall temperature \(T_ 0)\) followed by either a convergent \((a<0)\) or a divergent \((a>0)\) section. The boundary layer solutions relate to the potential flow given by \(U(x)=U_ 0-ax\) which, evidently, constitutes a generalized form of the flow along a flat plate and becomes identical with it when \(a=0\). The solutions are obtained in the form of a power series in \(x^*(=ax/U_ 0)(x^*<0\), accelerated flow, \(x^*>0\), decelerated flow).
