Abstract :
Effects of Slip and thermophoresis on
Unsteady Flow and Heat Transfer of (MHD)
Bioconvection of Nanofluids over a Stretching Sheet
was investigated. Similarity transformations are
employed to transform a set of nonlinear partial
differential equations for momentum, heat and mass
transfer, concentration and motile microorganism intoa
set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. These
equations are solved using fourth order Runge-Kutta
methods with a shooting technique. The effects of
velocity slip, temperature slip, thermophoresis and
grashof number are examined. While the velocity slip
increases the velocity profile and decrease. As the
temperature slip parameter increases the temperature
profile decreases gradually while heat transfer rate
increases.As the thermophoresis parameter increases the
temperature profile increases while heat transfer rate
initially decreases and then increases. The present
numerical results are compared with available data and
are found in an excellent agreement. Other results are
presented in a table and in graphs.
