Gyrotactic bio-magneto-convective combined impacts on magnetorheological hybrid nanoflow: Microbial life on surfaces’ application

Abstract

Magnetorheological fluid with self-driven ubiquitous motile organisms was affected by various physical factors such as hydrodynamics, dispersion, and distribution of organisms. These fascinating properties attracted us to work on this paper, a Casson hybrid nanoflow model exploring the dynamic behavior of microorganisms along spongy extensible surfaces taking Ohmic heating and chemical reaction into account. Further, the heat transfer phenomena are analyzed in the presence of thermal radiation and space and time-dependent energy sources/sinks. The nanoflow has its base methanol and a mixture of iron and aluminum oxides is suspended. Flow obeying mathematical model is solved numerically using the Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg technique along with the shooting method after imposing self-similarity transformation. Results of various pertinent parameters on the flow characteristic quantities and engineering quantities are portrayed and presented through graphs and tables. Iron oxide methanol nanofluid shows supremacy over hybrid nanoflows as speed is considered, whilst the opposite phenomenon is observed in the case of energy. Hybrid nanoflow makes the surface friction-free. Microorganism concentration difference improvement also helps in the intensification of motile organism growth.
