Abstract

Abstract This theoretical work suggests a novel nonlinear thermal radiation and an applied magnetic feature-based three-dimensional Casson nanomaterial flow. This flow is assumed in the rotating frame design. Gyrotactic microorganisms (GMs) are utilized in the Casson nanofluid to investigate bioconvection applications. The altered Buongiorno thermal nano-model is used to understand the thermophoretic and Brownian mechanisms. Convective boundary conditions must be overcome to solve the flow problem. With suitable variables, the dimensionless pattern of equations is obtained. The solutions to the nonlinear formulations are then obtained using semi-analytical simulations using a homotopy analysis mechanism. It was found that the velocity outline is enhanced with the enhancing estimations of the buoyancy ratio, rotation factor, and Casson parameter while it is reduced with mixed convection, porosity, slippery parameters, and Rayleigh number. The temperature profile is increased with radiation, the temperature ratio, the thermophoretic parameter, the Brownian parameter, and the Biot number. The Brownian parameter reasons an improvement in the concentration outline contrary to the thermophoretic parameter. The concentration of GMs is decreased with the Peclet number inversely to the Lewis number effect, which causes an increase in the microorganisms’ concentration.
