Abstract This study focusses on the numerical investigations of boundary layer flow for
magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) and a power-law nanofluid containing gyrotactic
microorganisms on an exponentially stretching surface with zero nanoparticle mass flux
and convective heating. The nonlinear system of the governing equations is transformed
and solved by Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method. The impacts of the transverse magnetic
field, bioconvection parameters, Lewis number, nanofluid parameters, Prandtl number
and power-law index on the velocity, temperature, nanoparticle volume fraction, density
of motile microorganism profiles is explored. In addition, the impacts of these parameters
on local skin-friction coefficient, local Nusselt, local Sherwood… More >
