AbstractThis study examines the influence of thermal radiation and heat source/sink of the tangent hyperbolic fluid on EMHD boundary layer flow through stretching sheets. Motile gyrotactic microorganism is considered in the fluid flow and the flow is analyzed with the impact of thermal radiation, heat source/sink, and electromagnetohydrodynamic. By utilizing the proper similarity transformations, partial differential systems are converted to ordinary differential systems. The Runge–Kutta fifth‐order method with shooting technique is used in the converted systems to solve numerically. Velocity, temperature, concentration, and microorganism density profile are discussed and represented graphically. The numerical values of drag force rate, heat transfer rate, mass transfer rate, and density of motile microorganisms are specified, compared, and results enhancement in heat transfer rate as 64.31% by radiation parameter, mass transfer rate as 97.28% by heat source/sink parameter and microorganism density rate as 28.33% by Peclet number, respectively. The buoyancy parameter diminishes the drag force by 30.39%. The multiple and quadratic regression coefficient for adjusted , multiple , residual standard error, F‐statistic, and p‐value is estimated for skin friction, Nusselt number, Sherwood number, and density of microorganism. It has significant applications which are widely used to transport biological material in bio‐microfluidics, enhance heat dissipation in high‐performance electronics, thermal management systems on spacecraft and satellites, and solar energy systems.
