Investigation of cross-fluid flow containing motile gyrotactic microorganisms and nanoparticles over a three-dimensional cylinder

Due to the variation in fluid flow behavior in various physical conditions, the presented study have been performed an investigation of cross-fluid flow containing gyrotactic microorganisms and nanoparticles on a horizontal and three-dimensional cylinder considering viscous dissipation and magnetic field. The governing equations of the problem have been solved by the Runge-Kutta fifth-order method. The aim of this study is to inspect the effects of cross fluid, microorganisms, and magnetic field, on velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles. Also, Heat flux and mass flux values for nanoparticles and microorganisms have been calculated in tabular form. In this research, the simultaneous utilization of nanoparticles with motile microorganisms in cross fluid, and three-dimensional assessment on the cylinder has been proposed as an innovation. The results show that, when the Brownian motion parameter varies from 0.1 to 0.4 and at η=4, the concentration of nanoparticle deduces about 80.43%. Furthermore, with the change of bioconvection Lewis number from 0.2 to 0.5, it was observed that the concentration of the microorganisms reduced about 78.38%.
