Activation energy and angular momentum in electromagnetic radiation micropolar nanofluids: Focus on microbial eukaryotic species

Abstract

Microbial eukaryotic species play a crucial role in biomedical research, aiding in the study of bacterial impurities, microorganism pathogenesis, and development of tactics to combat antimicrobial struggle. These species represent a complex and diverse aspect of bacteriological life, influencing ecosystems, human health, and technological progress. This study aims to create a comprehensive computational model to analyze the magnetohydrodynamics of a non-Newtonian micropolar nanofluid over an exponentially stretchable surface. It incorporates the Buongiorno model, which considers thermophoretic diffusion and Brownian motion effects to study the thermal behavior of micropolar nanofluids. It is also investigated how thermal radiation affects the current model. The classical Navier's stokes equations of motions of the current model are transform into a system of ordinary differential equation by employing similarity approach. The classical Navier-Stokes equations of motion are transformed into ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations, and MATLAB is used to solve them numerically. Here we considered three different cases, (i)-injection fw>0, (ii)-impermeable wall fw=0, (iii)-suction fw<0 which are illustrated visually. The consequence of various flow parameters effects on velocity, temperature, concentration, motile microorganism, and angular profiles are illustrated graphically. The high concordance between the model's results and the available data validates its originality. Present results indicate that while a larger porosity and Hartman number decrease velocity, increasing the mass and thermal convective factors raises the velocity profile. Raising the thermophoretic and magnetic parameters causes the temperature profile to climb; however, raising the temperature exponent and Prandtl number causes it to fall. The behavior of micropolar nanofluids is better understood thanks to this research, which could have applications in a variety of industries including manufacturing, energy, electronics, and healthcare. The novelty of the current model is verified using data that has already been published, and a great agreement is observed. When the values of the parameter K lies between the ranges 0.2<K< 0.3, and 0.3<K< 0.4, percentage increment noted in heat transfer enhancement is about 2.3 % and 6.3 % Until now, no such investigation has been performed to examine the implications of three-dimensional bio-convection micropolar based Casson fluid flow under the activation energy and suction/injection. From the outcomes, it was established that nanofluids are more fruitful for heat transfer enhancement.
