Abstract
- Present work is concerned with hydromagnetic bioconvective chemically reactive flow of Reiner-Rivlin nanoliquid. Analysis is constructed for entropy generation. Thermal relation consists of Joule heating, radiation and dissipation. Soret effect for chemically reactive flow is examined. Nonlinear governing systems after adequate transformations are solved by ND-solve technique. Graphical analysis for velocity, microorganism field, entropy rate, thermal field and concentration is analyzed. Graphical description for coefficient of skin friction, microorganism density number, heat transport rate and concentration gradient are studied. Entropy rate increase is detected for higher magnetic parameter while reverse trend holds for velocity. Clearly temperature augments against thermophoresis and radiation. Radiation intensifies entropy rate and heat transport rate. Similar impact of drag force and temperature for magnetic parameter is noticed. Concentration and mass transport rate rise against higher Soret number. Brownian motion variation results in concentration decays. Large Peclet number leads to decrease of microorganism field whereas it intensifies the microorganism density number. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
