Non-similar solutions for radiative bioconvective flow with Soret and Dufour impacts

Abstract

Here two-dimensional electrically conducting bioconvection flow involving Maxwell liquid is explored. Darcy-Forchheimer relation is taken for porous space. Thermal expression comprises nonlinear radiation, heat generation and dissipation. Influences of Arrhenius activation energy and gyrotactic microorganism are discussed. Novel characteristics of diffusion thermo and thermo-diffusion are discussed. Suitable variables are implemented in obtaining required differential system. ND-solve technique is implemented for computations Flow, microorganism field, thermal distribution and concentration are graphically examined. Tabulated values give rise to interest for physical quantities. A decrease in flow is noticed for magnetic variable and Deborah number while reverse behavior holds through mixed convection. An improvement in temperature occurs for higher magnetic field. Dufour number corresponds to upsurge heat transport rate and temperature distribution. Larger radiation results in temperature enhancement. A rise in concentration is observed for Soret number whereas reverse effect seen for Schmidt number. Reduction in microorganism field is noted versus higher Peclet number.
