Significance of bio-convection, MHD, thermal radiation and activation energy across Prandtl nanofluid flow: A case of stretching cylinder.

The current research investigates the effects of Brownian motion, thermophoresis, and multi buoyancy forces on MHD Prandtl fluid as it flows through a stretched cylinder with convective boundary conditions. Linear thermal conductivity is included in the energy equation's development. The nanofluid flows are important in cooling systems, modern nano-technology, electronic parts and heat exchangers. The primary objective of this research is to enhance heat transportation. The problem consists of nonlinear PDEs and these equations are transformed into ODEs by incorporating suitable similarity transformations. The shooting strategy is used to solve the problem numerically after converting the non-dimensional ordinary differential equations to a system of first-order ODEs. A comparison is made between the MATLAB-generated findings and those that have already been published. The numerical results of various parameters have been systematically organized into tabular representations. Graphs show how significant parameters affect the given velocity, temperature, concentration, and motile microorganism measurements. When the buoyancy ratio and bio-convective Rayleigh number increase, the velocity profile drops; however, the temperature profile shows increasing behavior for the thermal radiation parameter. The concentration profiles are enhanced for the higher inputs in curvature parameter, magnetic parameter, and activation parameter while the density of motile microbes' decay for enhanced inputs of bio-convective Lewis number.
