%X The problem of steady laminar fully developed flow and heat transfer in an inclined channel consisting of a couple-stress fluid sandwiched between two Newtonian fluids with permeable beds is investigated. The flow in the permeable beds is governed by Darcy¡¯s law. The closed form solutions are obtained for the velocity and temperature fields in the channel. The effect of permeability on the velocity and temperature is discussed. We observed that for a given y, the velocity increases with increasing Darcy number and for a given y, the temperature increases with increasing couple stress parameter a.
