Abstract

This study elaborates on the flow of viscoelastic nanofluid consisting of gyrotactic microorganism over a rotating stretching disk along with convective boundary and zero mass flux conditions. Using the similarity transformations the nonlinear coupled partial differential equations regulating the present problem are converted into a set of ordinary differential equations which are approximated numerically by the Keller Box method. The numerically obtained results are verified with the available existing literature for particular values of the involved parameters which are limiting cases of the present analysis. Variation of heat and mass transfer and density numbers are presented graphically and the influence of various parameters on both radial and azimuthal velocities, temperature, concentration, and density of motile-microorganisms for convective and non-convective surfaces is shown through various plots and discussed.
