Abstract
- This study offers a numerical assessment of unsteady laminar flow, heat and mass transfer of conventional hybrid nanofluid considering activation energy which is noticed in chemical processes. Further, non linear radiation and bioconvection flow with first order slip is also accounted. Nanoparticles as Cu and Al2O3 in the base fluid H2O are included in this analysis. Similarity transformation is applied to the governing model equations to reduce dimensionless form and ''bvp4c'' a MATLAB solver, is applied to get numerical outputs of flow problem. Validation of numerical outcomes is done by an analytical approach optimal auxiliary function method (OAFM). This analysis reports better thermal characteristics when volume fractions 0.0 ≤ φ1 ≤ 0.5 and 0.0 ≤ φ2 ≤ 0.5 of both nanoparticles Cu and Al2O3 are enhanced. Results for present analysis are interpreted numerically and graphically for distinct enhanced values of dimensionless parameters and physical quantities. The high resistance offered by velocity slip (0 ≤ Sv1 ≤ 1.0) and Forchheimer parameter (0 ≤ Fr ≤ 10) cause a drop in velocity profiles. It is noticed that bioconvection Peclet number (0 ≤ Pe ≤ 0.7) leading to a drop (χ(η) = 0.139972 to χ(η) = 0.0817063, at η = 1) in density distribution of motile microorganisms.
