Multiple slip flow of nanofluid with bioconvective transport phenomenon and porosity effects

Abstract

ABSTRACT With advances in the use of nanomaterials for heat transfer, various attributes have been recognized by researchers, paving the way for more dynamic and interdisciplinary applications. The assessment of heat and mass transfer facilitated by nanomaterials, especially in the context of sliding phenomena, plays a crucial role in manufacturing, industrial operations and the petroleum sector, among others. Driven by such considerations, the present study introduces bioconvective patterns into nanofluid flow, taking into account several sliding conditions. These multiple sliding conditions, related to speed, temperature, concentration and microorganisms, were examined to study the synergistic effects on heat and mass transfer. The flow examined is influenced by a porous stretchable surface, incorporating suction and injection mechanisms, while the fluid itself is electrically conductive. A firing method was designed to tackle the proposed model. The impact of various parameters is analyzed visually, revealing that the velocity profile is diminished by the velocity slip constant and the permeability of the porous medium. Furthermore, the interaction of multiple sliding effects distinctly enhances thermal processes.
