Comparative Analysis of a Cone, Wedge, and Plate Packed with Microbes in Non-Fourier Heat Flux

In this study, we investigated a radiative chemically reactive Casson fluid above a cone, plate, and wedge with gyrotactic microorganisms subjected to the Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model. Newton’s method and the Runge–Kutta methods were employed to solve the physical problem, and a graphical repre...

description In this study, we investigated a radiative chemically reactive Casson fluid above a cone, plate, and wedge with gyrotactic microorganisms subjected to the Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model. Newton’s method and the Runge–Kutta methods were employed to solve the physical problem, and a graphical representation of the numerous impacts of non-dimensional parameters on temperature, velocity, and concentration was created. In addition, we also compared recently published solutions with our current solution, which showed good agreement. From this investigation, we concluded that the motile organisms’ momentum, temperature, and concentration density were non-uniform in nature. Here, for engineering importance, we also present the mass transfer and thermal transfer rate over the cone, wedge, and plate cases in a tabular form. We concluded that the mass and heat transfer rate was larger over the cone when compared to the same case over a plate or wedge. The results also highlighted that the local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers and the mass density of the microorganisms depreciated as the Casson fluid parameter decreased. In summary, we concluded that the gyrotactic microorganisms played a role in enhancing the local Sherwood number.
