Abstract

A rotating MHD flow of electrically conducting Oldroyd-B fluid through non-Darcy porous medium across a stretching/shrinking surface is investigated in purview of bioconvection effects. The fluid velocity field, temperature field, concentration of nano materials and that of bio microorganisms have been simultaneously formulated in the form of coupled nonlinear partial differential equations. The quest for improved thermal performance in practicable situations has motivated to utilize some real fluids like Oldroyd-B nanofluids with support from bioconvection effect to stabilize nanoparticle fraction. The zero normal flux of the nanoparticles and convective boundary condition are imposed. The substitution of appropriate similarity functions has resulted a set of ordinary differential equations (ODE). The sparse system of transformed ODEs was simulated numerically with bvp4c solver facilitated by MATLAB commercial software. Computations were executed for specific parameters to perceive the response of velocity, temperature, concentration of nanoparticles and concentration of microorganisms, skin friction coefficient and local heat transfer rate with variation of influential parameters. It is detected that fluid temperature profile rises when Deborah number, Biot number, parameters for buoyancy ratio, porosity, rotation, magnetic field strength, thermophoresis diffusion are enhanced.
