Abstract.   An initial-boundary value problem for one-dimensional flow of a compressible viscous heat-conducting micropolar fluid is considered. It is assumed that the fluid is thermodinamically perfect and politropic. A global-in-time existence theorem is proved. The proof is based on a local existence theorem, obtained in the previous paper.
