Gyrotactic bioconvection at pycnoclines
Bioconvection is an important phenomenon in aquatic environments, affecting the spatial distribution of motile micro-organisms and enhancing mixing within the fluid. However, stratification arising from thermal or solutal gradients can play a pivotal role in suppressing the bioconvective flows, leading to the aggregation of micro-organisms and growth of their patchiness. We investigate the comb...
متن کاملUnsteady Viscous Dissipative Dusty Nanofluid Flow Over a Vertical Plate
Abstract— The flow past an infinite vertical isothermal plate started impulsively in its own plane in a viscous incompressible two-phase nanofluid has been considered by taking into account the viscous dissipative heat. Two nano particles Copper (Cu) and Alumina (Al2O3) are submerged in a base fluid, Water (H20). The coupled non-linear partial differential equations which govern the flow are so...
متن کاملBioconvection Heat Transfer of a Nanofluid over a Stretching Sheet with Velocity Slip and Temperature Jump
This paper presents an investigation for bioconvection heat transfer of a nanofluid containing gyrotactic microorganisms over a stretching sheet, in which the effects of radiation, velocity slip and temperature jump are taken into account. The nonlinear governing equations are reduced into four ordinary differential equations by similarity transformations and solved by Homotopy Analysis Method ...
متن کاملNon linear bioconvection in a deep suspension of gyrotactic swimming micro organisms
The non-linear structure of deep, stochastic, gyrotactic bioconvection is explored. A linear analysis is reviewed and a weakly non-linear analysis justifies its application by revealing the supercritical nature of the bifurcation. An asymptotic expansion is used to derive systems of partial differential equations for long plume structures which vary slowly with depth. Steady state and travellin...
متن کاملThe growth of bioconvection patterns in a uniform suspension of gyrotactic micro-organisms.
'Bioconvection' is the name given to pattern-forming convective motions set up in suspensions of swimming micro-organisms. 'Gyrotaxis' describes the way the swimming is guided through a balance between the physical torques generated by viscous drag and by gravity operating on an asymmetric distribution of mass within the organism. When the organisms are heavier towards the rear, gyrotaxis turns...
