Thermal Effect on the Bioconvection Dynamics of Gravitactic Microorganisms in a Rectangular Cavity

Thermal Effect on the Bioconvection Dynamics of Gravitactic Microorganisms in a Rectangular Cavity

In this work, the dynamics of the bioconvection process of gravitactic microorganisms enclosed in a rectangular cavity, is analyzed. The dimensionless cell and energy conservation equations are coupled with the vorticity-stream function formulation. Then, the effects of the bioconvection Rayleigh nu...
