Magneto-bioconvection flow of Casson nanofluid configured by a rotating disk in the presence of gyrotatic microorganisms and Joule heating

Abstract

In this article, we investigate the bioconvection flow of Casson nanofluid by a rotating disk under the impacts of Joule heating, convective conditions, heat source/sink and gyrotactic microorganisms. When Brownian diffusion and thermophoretic effects exist, the Casson fluid is examined. The existing physical problem of Casson nanofluid flow with energy transports is demonstrated under the above considerations in the form of partial differential equations (PDEs). Using the appropriate transformations, the PDEs are converted into non-linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The mathematical results are calculated through MATLAB by using the function bvp4c. The problem's results are rigorously examined graphically and described with physical justifications. Velocity fields decrease as the bioconvection Rayleigh parameter rises. The thermal profile and soluteal field of species also magnify with an upsurge in thermophoresis number estimations. The microorganism's fields are decayed by larger microbes Biot number.
