Abstract

:
Many biotechnology sectors that depend on fluids and their physical characteristics, including the phenomenon of bioconvection, have generated a great deal of discussion. The term “bioconvection” describes the organized movement of microorganisms, such as bacteria or algae. Microorganisms that participate in bioconvection display directed movement, frequently in the form of upward or downward streaming, which can lead to the production of distinctive patterns. The interaction between the microbes’ swimming behavior and the physical forces acting on them, such as buoyancy and fluid flow, is what drives these patterns. This work considers the laminar-mixed convection incompressible flow at the stagnation point with viscous and gyrotactic microorganisms in an unsteady electrically conducting hybrid nanofluid (Fe3O4-Cu/water). In addition, hybrid nanofluid flow over a horizontal porous stretched sheet, as well as external and induced magnetic field effects, can be used in biological domains, including drug delivery and microcirculatory system flow dynamics. The governing system has been reduced to a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) through the use of the group technique. The current research was inspired by an examination of the impacts of multiple parameters, including Prandtl number, P r , magnetic diffusivity, η 0 , shape factor ,   n , microorganism diffusion coefficient, D n , Brownian motion coefficient, D B , thermophoresis diffusion coefficient,   D T , bioconvection Peclet number, P e , temperature difference,   δ t , and concentration difference,   δ c . The results show that as P r rises, temperature, heat flux, and nanoparticles all decrease. In contrast, when the η 0 value increases, the magnetic field and velocity decrease. Heat flow, bacterial density, and temperature decrease as the D B value rises, yet the number of nanoparticles increases. As the D T value increases, the temperature, heat flow, and concentration of nanoparticles all rise while the density of bacteria decreases. Even though temperature, heat flux, nanoparticles, and bacterial density all decrease as δ c values climb, bacterial density rises as D n values do although bacterial density falls with increasing,   δ t and P e values; on the other hand, when n values increase, temperature and heat flow increase but the density of bacteria and nanoparticle decrease. The physical importance and behavior of the present parameters were illustrated graphically.

1. Introduction

A suspension of nanoscale fibers or particles in a base fluid which might be any common liquid, including ethylene glycol, water, or oil is referred to as a “nanofluid”. The basic fluid’s properties are changed when nanoparticles are added, and the nanofluid’s overall mass and heat transport characteristics are improved. Typically, the size of the nanoparticles employed in nanofluids ranges from 1 to 100 nanometers. They can be non-metallic, like carbon nanotubes, graphene, or oxide nanoparticles like alumina, titania, or silica, or metallic, like copper, silver, or gold nanoparticles. These nanoparticles are appealing for enhancing heat transfer and other associated processes because of their special qualities, which include high surface area-to-volume ratio, high thermal conductivity, and improved optical features.
The organized movement of microbes in fluid media, which is often brought about by the interplay of physical and biological components, is referred to as “bioconvection”. The collective activity of microbes is responsible for the emergence of directed motion and the creation of spatial patterns, a phenomenon observed in many microbial systems. The self-organizing properties of microorganisms such as bacteria, algae, and protozoa lead to the redistribution of the fluid medium’s cells during bioconvection. This redistribution might be brought on by a variety of factors, including gradients in temperature, light intensity, dissolved gases, or nutrient concentrations. During bioconvection, a combination of individual motility and cell-to-cell interactions propel the movement of microorganisms. In addition to using appendages like cilia or flagella, microorganisms can move via gliding or swarming. Cell connections can result from physical processes such as hydrodynamic interactions or chemotactic responses to chemical signals produced by neighboring cells. The controlled movement of microorganisms in bioconvection sometimes leads to the formation of distinct patterns in the fluid medium, such as rolls, vortices, or bands. Individual cell motility and population-level feedback mechanisms interact to produce these patterns. The properties of the fluid medium, the surrounding conditions, and the characteristics of the microorganisms dictate the specific patterns that are produced. Our knowledge of bioconvection and its importance in biological and environmental systems is still growing as a result of ongoing study. A. Ali et al.

In the present work, an electrically guided coupled pressure crossover (Fe3O4-Cu/water) nanofluid stream is examined consisting of gyrotactic microorganisms pushed close to the plane stagnation point over a level, permeable, extending layer alongside an external attractive field and causing attractive field impacts. In order to comprehensively depict the nanofluid’s dynamics, the impacts of multiple parameters are taken into account including Prandtl number, P r , magnetic diffusivity, η 0 , shape factor,   n , microorganism diffusion coefficient, D n , Brownian motion coefficient, D B , thermophoresis diffusion coefficient, D T , bioconvection Peclet number, P e , temperature difference, δ t , and concentration difference, δ c . The novelty of the present work can be summarized as follows:
  • The mathematical model is extended to three dimensions instead of the usual two-dimensional model;
  • An unsteady flow model is investigated instead of a steady-state case;
  • Two-phase hybrid nanofluid is considered with variable distribution nanoparticles-fraction;
  • The considered model combines the effect of microorganism type and nanoparticle shape factor.

2. Mathematical Formulation

In biological fields like medication administration and microcirculatory system flow dynamics, hybrid nanofluid flow across a horizontal porous stretched sheet with external and induced magnetic field effects may be useful. The following uses are possible.
The use of nanofluids in drug delivery systems has garnered interest for their unique features. By examining hybrid nanofluid flow across a porous stretched sheet, researchers can understand drug delivery conveyance. External and generated magnetic fields can improve drug-loaded nanoparticle control and targeting in fluid flow, enabling precise body delivery. Additionally, understanding microcirculatory system flow dynamics is essential for investigating physiological processes and illnesses. Hybrid nanofluid flow analysis can reveal microvessel blood flow dynamics. The addition of external and induced magnetic fields can assist the study of how magnetic nanoparticles affect blood flow, such as viscosity or tailored flow patterns. Hyperthermia treatment, which is a therapeutic method, raises bodily tissue temperature to cure problems like cancer. Magnetic hyperthermia generates heat in hybrid nanofluids when magnetic fields are applied. Nanofluids’ interactions with external and generated magnetic fields can be utilized for diagnostic purposes. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses nanoparticles and magnetic fields to obtain detailed pictures of inside body components. Studying hybrid nanofluid flow in magnetic fields can improve diagnostic methods.
A directly stretching plate below an external magnetic flux is considered assuming continuously laminar-varied convection compact viscous and electrically coupling pressure in Fe3O4-Cu/water hybrid nanofluid. This is defined and illustrated in Figure 1. Different kinds of motile bacteria are swimming through the nanofluid at their fastest potential speed w c . The surface of the stretching sheet has an injection action, and the sheet is permeable. Additionally, the sheet’s suction/injection velocity is V 0 , whereas σ h n f ,     ρ h n f represent the electric conductivity and density of the hybrid nanofluid, T w is the sheet temperature. The fluid’s velocity components are denoted by the symbols u ,   v and w . The equation for concentration continuity yields the volumetric percentage of nanoparticle concentration, c. A microorganisms’ continuity equation is also provided to complete the present example’s mathematical model. Figure 1 shows the physical model, whereas Equation (1) through Equation (8) define the mathematical model.

3. System Invariant Group Transformation

The mathematical model is transformed into an equivalent system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) in terms of the similarity variable, η , using a group topology with two parameters ( α 1 , α 2 ).

3.1. Similarity Transformation of the Problem

Assume the following structure for the group hierarchy:
G : S ¯ = K s α 1 , α 2 S + Q s ( α 1 , α 2 )
The differential coefficient functions are represented as K s and Q s real values, respectively, with S denoting the system variables. Typically, partial derivatives are shown as follows:
S ¯ i ¯ = K s K i S i   S ¯ i j ¯ = K s K i K j S i j i = x , y   a n d   j = x , y

3.2. The Problem Analysis

Using the earlier relations, (23) and (24), Equation (14) becomes
u * ¯ u w ¯ x ¯ + u ¯ w u * ¯ x ¯ u * ¯ u e ¯ x ¯ u e ¯ u * ¯ x ¯ + u e ¯ x ¯ + v * ¯ v w ¯ y ¯ + v ¯ w v * ¯ y ¯ v * ¯ v e ¯ y ¯ v e ¯ v * ¯ y ¯ + v e ¯ y ¯ + w ¯ z ¯ = H 1 α 1 , α 2 u * u w x + u w u * x u * u e x u e u * x + u e x + v * v w y + v w v * y v * v e y v e v * y + v e y + w z
The slashes indicate the modified variables, while H 1 ( α 1 , α 2 ) is the equivalency parameter. Using (23) and (24) into (25) leads to
K u w K u * K x u * u w x + K u w K u * K x u w u * x K u e K u * K x u * u e x K u e K u * K x u e u * x + K u e K x u e x + K v w K v * K y v * v w y + K v w K v * K y v w v * y K v e K v * K y v * v e y K v e K v * K y v e v * y + K v e K y v e y + K w K z w z = H 1 α 1 , α 2 u * u w x + u w u * x u * u e x u e u * x + u e x + v * v w y + v w v * y v * v e y v e v * y + v e y + w z

The invariance condition results in the following:
K u w = K u * = K u e = K x = K v e = K v * = K v w = K y = K z = K t = K N * = K C * = K θ = K w = K H 2 e = K H 2 * = K H 1 e K H 1 * = 1 Q u w = Q u * = Q u e = Q v e = Q v w = Q v * = Q C * = Q θ = Q H 2 e = Q H 2 * = Q H 1 * = Q H 1 e = Q w = Q N * = 0
Finally, the group structure, G , becomes
G : G 1   x ¯ = x + Q x y ¯ = y + Q y   z ¯ = z + Q z   t ¯ = t + Q t . G 2 C * ¯ = C *   θ ¯ = θ W ¯ = W N * ¯ = N * u ¯ w = u w v ¯ w = v w u ¯ e = u e v ¯ e = v e   H 1 e ¯ = K H 1 e H 1 e H 2 e ¯ = H 2 e   u * ¯ = u * v * ¯ = v * H 1 * ¯ = K H 1 * H 1 * H 2 * ¯ = H 2 *  

3.3. The Full Transformation of System’s Variables

Inspiring by Morgan’s theorem [41], the relationship listed below is used to change the system variables:
i = 1 18 γ i S i + δ i q i S i = 0
By using only one similarity variable, the approach reduces the number of independent variables. while the dependent variables u * , u e , u w , v * , v e , v w , w , c * ,   θ ,   N * ,   H 1 * ,   H 1 e ,   H 2 * ,   H 2 e become new variables that are invariant and the symbol, S i , refers to the original dependent variables of the system. Now, the coefficients, γ i   a n d   δ i , are defined as
γ i = K S i ( α ) α   δ i = Q S i ( α ) α

The Independent Variables Transformation

The independent variables ( x ,   y ,   z ,   and   t ) have been combined into a single similarity variable using Equation (36). Utilizing the identical processes outlined in references [42,43,44,45,46,47,48], the variables are supplied by the following:
η = F x , y , t z
The dependent variables are also modified to the following:
u * = ω x , y , t π η v * = ζ x , y , t E η w = w η H 1 * = Γ x , y , t H η H 2 * = λ x , y , t J η u w = u w ( x , y , t ) v w = v w x , y , t u e = u e ( x , y , t ) v e = v e x , y , t H 1 e = H 1 e x , y , t H 2 e = H 2 e x , y , t θ = θ η C * = C * η N * = ψ x , y , t g η
where F x , y , t ,   ω x , y , t ,   ζ x , y , t ,   Γ x , y , t ,   λ x , y , t ,   u w x , y , t ,   v w x , y , t ,   u e x , y , t ,   v e x , y , t ,   H 1 e x , y , t ,   H 2 e x , y , t   a n d   ψ x , y , t represent unknown functions that will be assessed during the reduction procedure.
The system (14)–(21) now reads as follows:

4. Results and Discussion

The MATLAB code that invokes the shooting method and Runge–Kutta technique is used to numerically solve Equations (49)–(56) that are subject to boundary conditions (57). The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of Prandtl number, P r , magnetic diffusivity, η 0 , shape factor, n , microorganism diffusion coefficient, D n , Brownian motion coefficient, D B , thermophoresis diffusion coefficient, D T , bioconvection Peclet number, P e , temperature difference, δ t , and concentration difference,   δ c .

4.1. Verification of the Results Obtained

For validation purposes, the new findings are contrasted with those of H. Waqas et al. [49]. As seen in Figure 2, the effect of Prandtl number P r was used as a comparison parameter that demonstrated a high degree of agreement.

4.2. The Influence of Prandtl Number, P r

Examining the impact of Prandtl number, it is found that when P r values rise, so do the temperature, heat flow, nanoparticles, and bacterial density. This is because fluids with a high Prandtl number ( P r >> 1), such as oils or water, have a low heat conductivity in relation to their viscosity. Larger temperature gradients and a less uniform distribution of temperatures occur from the slower transport of heat. The heat flow is influenced by the Prandtl number. A fluid with a high Prandtl number will typically have a low heat flux for a given temperature difference. This is because a fluid with a low Prandtl number has reduced viscosity and better thermal conductivity, which enables it to transmit heat more effectively. The way that nanoparticles behave while suspended in a fluid is also influenced by the Prandtl number. This is due to the fact that nanoparticles can improve convective heat transfer by raising the fluid’s effective thermal conductivity, encouraging mixing, and facilitating fluid motion. Figure 3, Figure 4, Figure 5, Figure 6, Figure 7 and Figure 8 exhibit these observations.

4.3. The Influence of Magnetic Diffusivity η 0

Examining the impact of magnetic diffusivity, it is shown that an increase in η 0 values result in a decrease in both the magnetic field and nanofluid velocity. Because magnetotactic bacteria align with magnetic fields, they can affect the fluid flow patterns in bioconvection fluids. These bacteria’s alignment has the potential to alter the fluid’s effective viscosity and anisotropy, which will have an impact on the velocity field. The way the magnetic field interacts with the bacteria and modifies the fluid flow can be influenced by the medium’s magnetic diffusivity. Increased magnetic diffusivity can cause the magnetic field to dissipate more quickly, which will weaken the magnetotactic bacteria’s alignment. This might lead to a decrease in the effects of bioconvection and a weaker magnetic field modulation of the velocity field. The results are shown in Figure 9, Figure 10, Figure 11, Figure 12, Figure 13, Figure 14, Figure 15 and Figure 16.

4.4. The Influence of Brownian Motion Coefficient, D B

Examining the impact of the Brownian motion coefficient demonstrates that when D B values rise, the temperature, heat flow, and bacterial density all drop. While the number of nanoparticles grows as D B values rise. This is due to the fact that the Brownian motion coefficient, which is inversely correlated with temperature, describes the random motion of particles floating in a fluid as a result of collisions with fluid molecules. As temperature increases, the random motion of fluid molecules becomes more energetic, leading to greater Brownian motion. The behavior of nanoparticles dispersed in bioconvection fluids is significantly influenced by the Brownian motion coefficient. Brownian motion disperses and mixes the nanoparticles in the fluid by causing them to move randomly. The diffusion and dispersion of nanoparticles are more noticeable with larger Brownian motion coefficients, and this can have an impact on the concentration gradients and general distribution of the particles in the fluid. This in turn affects how they interact with bacteria and the fluid around them. Figure 17, Figure 18, Figure 19, Figure 20, Figure 21 and Figure 22 demonstrate these observations.

4.5. The Influence of Thermophoresis Diffusion Coefficient, D T

Examining the impact of the thermophoresis diffusion coefficient demonstrates that when D T values rise, so do the temperature, heat flow, and nanoparticles. However, when D T values rise, the density of bacteria falls. This is so because the movement of particles in a fluid due to a temperature gradient is called thermophoresis, and the thermophoresis diffusion coefficient is what defines it. It gauges how quickly particles move in response to temperature changes. The fluid’s particle concentration can have an impact on the thermophoresis diffusion coefficient. Particle interactions between individual particles and collective effects can affect the overall behavior of thermophoresis when concentrations of particles are elevated. Concentration gradients can be enhanced by a larger thermophoresis diffusion coefficient, which will accelerate particle migration toward areas of higher temperature. This may have an impact on the fluid’s particle density, heat flow, and temperature distribution. Figure 23, Figure 24, Figure 25, Figure 26, Figure 27 and Figure 28 exhibit these observations.

4.6. The Influence of Microorganism Diffusion Coefficient, D n

Examining the impact of the microbe diffusion coefficient demonstrates that as D n values rise, so does the bacterial density. This is because the rate at which bacteria proliferate and amalgamate within the fluid is determined by the diffusion coefficient. Because they may spread faster, bacteria with greater diffusion coefficients distribute more uniformly across the fluid volume. This could produce a general rise in the density of bacteria in the fluid due to the increased chances for contacts and interactions. In bioconvection fluids, it influences the dispersion and geographical distribution of microorganisms. Bacterial diffusion increases with a larger microorganism diffusion coefficient. The results are shown in Figure 29 and Figure 30.

4.7. The Influence of Concentration Difference, δ c

Examining the impact of concentration differences, it is found that when δ c values rise, so do the temperature, heat flow, nanoparticles, and bacterial density. This is due to the fact that diffusion, which is fueled by concentration differences, is the net movement of particles from areas of greater concentration to regions of lower concentration. In the presence of a concentration gradient ( δ c ), the nanoparticles will tend to diffuse out and equalize the concentration distribution. Diffusion rate depends on a number of factors, including particle size, concentration, and fluid medium properties. The concentration difference diminishes with increasing diffusion over time. Buoyancy-driven flows can be produced by concentration differences. In bioconvection, for instance, microorganisms in a fluid travel toward warmer areas, causing density changes and upward flow. The results are shown in Figure 31, Figure 32, Figure 33, Figure 34, Figure 35 and Figure 36.

4.8. The Influence of Temperature Difference, δ t

Examining the impact of temperature variations, it is shown that while the density of bacteria decreases with increasing δ t values, the number of nanoparticles rises. This is due to the fact that variations in temperature can have an impact on the behavior of nanoparticles floating in a fluid. Nanoparticles may undergo thermophoretic mobility, also known as thermophoresis, in response to a temperature gradient. Temperature gradients cause thermophoresis, causing particles to migrate. Generally, particles go from warmer to colder environments. The amount and direction of the thermophoretic motion are determined by the fluid’s viscosity and heat conductivity, as well as the properties of the nanoparticles, including their size and surface charge. This phenomenon may affect the density and distribution of nanoparticles, causing them to scatter or collect in certain fluid areas. These findings are depicted in Figure 37, Figure 38, Figure 39 and Figure 40.

4.9. The Influence of Shape Factor, n

Examining how the form factor of the nanoparticle affects things shows that as n values increase, so does the density of both bacteria and nanoparticles. On the other hand, as n values grow, so do the temperature and heat flow. Because of their larger surface area, platelet nanoparticles with shape factor n = 5.7 adopt a higher temperature. Figure 41, Figure 42, Figure 43, Figure 44, Figure 45 and Figure 46 show these results.

4.10. The Influence of Bioconvection Peclet Number, P e

Examining the impact of bioconvection Peclet number indicates that when Pe values increase, the density of bacteria decreases. A rapid reduction in thickness is observed in motile bacteria when the number of Peclets increases. Stated differently, the reduction in the thickness of the motile bacteria and the subsequent decrease in the microorganisms’ dispersion was likely due to the strengthening of the Peclet number. For motile bacteria, this results in a drooping of the thickness and limit layer thickness due to an increase in Pe. Greater Peclet numbers indicate that diffusion is less important than advection. This effectively lowers the local density of bacteria by limiting their tendency to disperse and uniformly inhabit the area. Figure 47 and Figure 48 illustrate these results.

Additionally, magnetic field effects from the outside and from within, as well as hybrid nanofluid flow across a horizontal porous stretched sheet, The analysis of the effects of several parameters served as the inspiration for the current study, including Prandtl number, P r , magnetic diffusivity, η 0 , shape factor,   n , microorganism diffusion coefficient, D n , Brownian motion coefficient, D B , thermophoresis diffusion coefficient,   D T , bioconvection Peclet number, P e , temperature difference,   δ t , and concentration difference,   δ c .
  • The temperature, heat flow, nanoparticles, and bacterial density all drop when P r values rise;
  • Examining the impact of magnetic diffusivity, it is shown that an increase in η 0 values result in a decrease in both the magnetic field and nanofluid velocity;
  • The temperature, heat flow, and bacterial density all drop as D B values rise;
  • The temperature, heat flow, and nanoparticles all rise when D T values rise;
  • Examining how the microbe diffusion coefficient affects things shows that as D n values rise, so does the density of bacteria;
  • Examining the effect of concentration difference indicates that when δ c values rise, the temperature, heat flow, bacterial density, and nanoparticles all decrease;
  • Examining the impact of temperature variations shows that when δ t values rise, the number of nanoparticles increases while the density of bacteria decreases;
  • Examining the impact of the nanoparticle shape factor demonstrates that as n values increase, so does the density of both nanoparticles and bacteria;
  • Examining the effects of bioconvection Peclet number indicates that an increase in P e values results in a decrease in bacterial density.
