| Abstract: | The current article investigates the influence of radiation as well as gyrotactic microbes in the flow of micropolar nanoliquids through a channel. Flow is assumed to be symmetric across a channel having permeable walls. The work also focuses on the change in mass transport rate and density distribution of motile microbes across flow regimes in a porous channel. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations of the present problem are transformed into ODEs through dimensionless variables. The coupled nonlinear ODEs are numerically addressed by utilizing the quasi-linearization technique. Impacts of the pertinent parameters on the fluid flow are analyzed and demonstrated through tables as well as figures by using the powerful tool MATLAB. The velocity profiles escalate near both walls with an enhancement in Reynolds number. Moreover, an enhancement in values of heat radiation parameter causes declination in the fluid temperature. An evaluation of the comparison with existing results reveals an excellent harmony. The nanofluids possess marvelous characteristics subject to heat transport as compared to other ordinary fluids. We intend to elaborate the interaction of micropolar nanofluids with the microbes in a symmetric channel flow. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
