Abstract
In this paper, entropy generation in couple stress fluid flowing steadily through a porous channel with slip at the isothermal walls is considered. The Navier slip model is employed at both walls. Analytical solutions for the governing nonlinear boundary-value problems are constructed using Adomian decomposition method (ADM). Important flow properties are presented and discussed including the entropy generation and irreversibility ratio.
