The current paper investigates the bioconvective third-grade nanofluid flow containing gyrotactic organisms with Copper-blood nanoparticles in permeable walls.

Abstract

Purpose

The current paper investigates the bioconvective third-grade nanofluid flow containing gyrotactic organisms with Copper-blood nanoparticles in permeable walls.

Design/methodology/approach

The equations governing the flow are solved by adopting the Adomian decomposition method.

Findings

The results show that the biconvection Peclet number decreases the density of motile microorganisms, and the Rayleigh number also decreases the velocity profile.

Practical implications

The present study can be applied to design the higher generation microsystems.

Originality/value

To the best of the authors’ knowledge, no such investigation has been carried out in the literature.
