Abstract
The combination of microbes and nanofluids has noteworthy consequences for technological and engineering progress, particularly in the realm of heat transfer applications. This study explains radiative flow with chemical reactions affect the emergence of microorganisms in magnetic mixed convective Williamson nanofluid flow. The Cattaneo-Christov heat flux theory and the effects of heat source/sink have been examined about the energy equation. The prime idea of this analysis is to enhance heat and mass transport. The modelled equations have been converted to dimensionless by considering suitable alteration. The dimensionless expression is then numerically tackled using MATLAB's bvp4c approach. The graphs for different profiles—that is, momentum, temperature, concentration and concentration of microorganisms that move—are made visible for particular nondimensional factors. Furthermore, entropy generation minimization has been obtained through law of thermodynamics. The drag friction, heat and mass transfer rate, and microbe density are also computed in a tabular manner. The most important findings that are pertinent to this study are that an increase in the values of the Brownian motion, thermal radiation and thermophoresis significantly enhance heat transfer characteristics. A consistent pattern can be observed when comparing the current results with earlier research.
