This paper is concerned with the effect of slip velocity on the steady two-dimensional flow of a micropolar fluid near a stagnation point at a stretching plate in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field and thermal radiation with the bottom surface of the plate is heated by convection from a hot fluid. The governing system of partial differential equations describing the problem is converted into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations using similarity transformation, and then solved numerically using the Chebyshev spectral method. Numerical results for the velocity, microrotation, and temperature are shown graphically and discussed for various values of different parameters. Moreover, the numerical values of the local skin-friction coefficient and the local Nusselt number for these parameters are also tabulated and discussed.
