Abstract
In this numerical investigation, tangent hyperbolic nanofluid past a wedge-shaped surface filled with gyrotactic micro-organisms has been examined. The simulations have been performed in the presence of Ohmic heating and linear thermal radiation effect. After using similarity transformation to convert modeled PDEs into ODEs, the system of ODEs is tackled with the aid of shooting technique. For the authenticity of the code, the present numerical data have been compared with the already existing results in the literature. The impact of important governing parameters on velocity, concentration, temperature, and motile density distribution is examined graphically. Furthermore, the numerical values of the surface drag, heat transfer rate, mass transfer rate, and motile density number are computed and represented in the tabular form. Our simulations indicate that the Nusselt number is enhanced for the growing values of unsteadiness and the velocity ratio parameters. Moreover, a significant raise in nanofluid velocity is observed as magnetic number gets bigger whereas the temperature profile is depressed. For the above proposed model, it can be concluded that heat and mass can be enhanced by using gyrotactic micro-organism.
