Here modelling and computations are presented to introduce the concept of activation energy involved in the micropolar fluid between the porous vertical channel with the boundary conditions of third kind. The fluid is considered to be gray, absorbing-emitting but non scattering medium. The resulting system of equations are solved numerically by Crank-Nicolson implicit finite difference method. The effect of various physical parameter such as activation energy, micropolar parameter, reaction rate, Reynolds number, Schmidt number, heat and mass transfer Biot numbers on the velocity, temperature and concentration field are discussed by means of pictorial representation.
