In this article, the mixed convective flow of a micropolar fluid along a permeable vertical plate under the convective boundary condition is analyzed. The scaling group of transformations is applied to get the similarity representation of the system of partial differential equations of the problem and then the resulting equations are solved by using Spectral Quasi-Linearisation Method. This study reveals that the dual solutions exists for certain values of mixed convection parameter. The outcomes are analyzed with dual solutions in detail. Effects of micropolar parameter, Biot number and suction/injection parameters on different flow profiles are discussed and depicted graphically.
