Significance of radiative heat conduction on bioconvection flow of Maxwell fluid flow with homogenous-heterogenous reactions

The study addresses the thermal radiative analysis of the bioconvective magnetized Maxwell fluid flow over a porous stretching cylinder, incorporating with variable fluid properties, homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions, and joule heating impacts. The research explores the energy transport phenomena of the fluid flow, incorporating thermal convective boundary conditions on the cylinder's surface. The flow model with energy equation is converted into the ordinary differential equations by using group of transformation. The differential equations are solved numerically using the Bvp4c technique. The study investigates the behavior of bioconvective non-Newtonian flow and heat transfer rate, focusing on temperature, velocity, concentration, and microorganism density profiles. Stronger values of the Maxwell parameter lead to a decline in fluid velocity. The study also notes that stronger resistance occurs due to larger estimates of the Darcy-Forchheimer number, resulting in reduced fluid velocity. Furthermore, the thermal conductivity parameter augments the temperature field. From the results, the study draws conclusions about the complex behavior of bioconvective Maxwell fluids under the influence of magnetohydrodynamics and chemical reactions. The work contributes to the existing literature by combining magnetohydrodynamics, chemical reactions, and bioconvection in the context of Maxwell fluids, providing insights into the interplay of these phenomena. The novelty of the work lies in its comprehensive analysis of the interrelated effects, shedding light on the behavior of viscoelastic materials under various conditions, which goes beyond previous efforts in the field.
