ABSTRACT

The behavior of blood flow containing gyrotactic microorganisms propelled through a capillary with permeable and stretching medium in the presence of a magnetic field was studied numerically. The governing partial differential equations were modified into ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformation variables. The emerging equations computed numerically with the help of Successive Taylor series linearization method (STSLM). The influence of unsteadiness parameter, Hartman number, permeability parameter, radiation parameter, Prandtl number, Brownian motion parameter, thermophoresis parameter, Schmidt number, bio-convection Schmidt number, and bioconvection Peclet number on the velocity, temperature, concentration, motile microorganisms profiles and also the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number, Sherwood number and local density number of motile microorganisms were drawn graphically to study the physical importance of the present problem.
