Performance of variable characteristics on MHD Jeffery nanofluid over spinning disk with Cattaneo‐Christov heat flux and microswimmers

Abstract

Abstract Variable properties like thermal conductivity and variable thickness of the disk are analyzed for the Jeffery nanofluid and gyrotactic microorganisms in rotating system taking into account the Cattaneo‐Christov heat flux, velocity slip and thermal radiation effects. Zero mass flux is assumed at the disk surface for the better and high accuracy of the out‐turn. The governing equations of the problem are transformed into nonlinear ordinary differential equations by introducing the appropriate similarity transformations which are solved analytically by the homotopy analysis method. The effects of all the parameters are given in detail through the graphs.
