Abstract

The study considers the case of the unequal diffusion coefficients of reactant $A$ (bulk fluid) and reactant $B$ (catalyst at the wall) with the dispersion of both nanoparticles and gyrotactic microorganisms of Erying-Powell fluid flow over a surface with non-uniform thickness in the presence of variable fluid properties and stratification. The numerical solution of the transformed governing equations is obtained by using the Runge-Kutta method and shooting techniques. The outcome of this study is that the increasing values of temperature-dependent thermal conductivity parameter lead to the augmentation of the kinetic energy which thereafter causes a significant enhancement of the fluid temperature.
