Abstract

This article addresses salient features of gyrotactic microorganisms and activation energy in the ow of nanouid by rotating disks. An ESHS process is implemented to examine the thermal transport characteristics. Additionally, the nanoparticle mass ux condition is considered and the solutions are numerically computed. Impacts of various physical variables appearing in the solutions of non-linear systems are carefully analyzed. The current work identifies that temperature distribution of nanoliquid enhances via thermophoresis and Brownian diffusion variables. Moreover, activation energy and temperature difference parameters diminish nanoparticle concentration. Comparative study is provided in order to validate the outcomes.
