Nonlinear magnetohydrodynamic flow of nanofluids across a porous matrix over an extending sheet with mass transpiration and bioconvection

Abstract

The consequences of the nonlinear magnetic field and radiative thermal energy are evaluated for bioconvective viscous flow across a porous matrix over a nonlinearly stretching sheet. The rationale of the study is to attain enhanced thermal transportation. The dilute dispersion of nanoentities and bioconvection of swimming microorganisms are taken into consideration. The coupled partial differential system of field equations is transformed into ordinary differential form. Finally, the numeric solution is obtained by utilizing the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method shooting technique, and results are validated through an acceptable accord with existing studies. The variation of influential parameters such as combined magnetic parameter, mass transpiration parameter, thermophoresis, Brownian motion, bioconvection Lewis numbers made notable impacts on fluid velocity, temperature, concentration of nanoentities, and distribution of microorganisms.
