“…The results showed that mass transfer can be enhanced and the stability of the nanofluidis improved by adding motile microorganisms to the suspension. A stagnation‐point flow containing both nanoparticles and gyrotactic microorganisms with a shrinking/stretching sheet has been studied by Khairy and colleagues, and the three‐dimensional stagnation point flow of a nanofluid containing microorganisms has been researched in the literature . Alsaedi and colleagues performed an analysis for MHD‐stratified bioconvective flow of a nanofluid due to gyrotactic microorganisms.…”

The nanofluid model containing microorganisms over a rotating disk with power‐law stretching is constructed in this paper. The combined effects of nanoparticles and microorganisms in nanofluid are investigated by solving the governing equations numerically. The numerical solutions of the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number are in agreement with the corresponding previously published results. The quantities of physical interest are graphically presented and discussed in detail. It is found that the power‐law stretching index has produced profound influence on the flow as well as the heat and mass transfer.

“…Uddin et al [7] applied the improved homotopy analysis technique when considered the influences of the Stefan blowing and the velocity and thermal slips on the nanofluid containing motile microorganisms over a horizontal stretching/shrinking sheet. Raees et al [8] considered the three-dimensional stagnation flow of a nanofluid containing both nanoparticles and microorganisms on a moving plate with anistropic slip. Based on the study of the MHD nonNewtonian nanofluids over a cone [9], Raju and Sandeep [10] did a comparative research and found that the heat and mass transfer in MHD non-Newtonian bioconvection flow over a rotating cone was significantly high when compared with the flow over a rotating plate.…”

In the present study, we investigate the velocity, thermal, solutal, and motile micro-organism (MM) slip effects on the flow of chemically reactive Casson nanofluid flowing over an exponentially stretched electromagnetic sheet in the presence of a chemical reaction. In addition, a mechanism of improving the motion of nanoparticles (Brownian motion and thermophoresis) is incorporated. The nondimensionalized ordinary differential equations are tackled by using symbolic computation software, MATLAB 2012b, with bvp4c function. Some significant and relevant characteristics of associated profiles are displayed graphically and discussed beautifully with the aid of tables through comprehensive numerical computations. The results of the study show that elevated Casson fluid parameter, gyrotactic micro-organism, and electromagnetic strength belittle both axial as well as transverse velocities and the related momentum boundary layer thickness. Another important outcome is that low Prandtl fluids and enhancement in the strength of electromagnetic field fasten the diffusion of micro-organisms, thereby augmenting the density of MM in the related boundary layer.
