Heat and Mass Transfer in Three-Dimensional Flow of an Oldroyd-B Nanofluid with Gyrotactic Micro-Organisms

This paper discusses the three-dimensional flow of the gyrotactic bioconvection of an Oldroyd-B nanofluid over a stretching surface. Theory of microorganisms is utilized to stabilize the suspended nanoparticles through bioconvection induced by the effects of buoyancy forces. Analytic solution for th...
