Purpose This paper aims to explore the study of magnetohydrodynamic viscous fluid flow past on a stretching cylinder with nonlinear thermal radiation having gyrotactic microorganisms. Design/methodology/approach Appropriate transformations reduce the nonlinear partial differential equation to ordinary ones. Subsequent nonlinear equations are calculated to get convergent series solutions. Findings Fluid velocity declines for elevating values of magnetic field parameter. For larger values of curvature parameter near the cylinder temperature reduces. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, magnetohydrodynamic boundary layer flow of viscous fluid by nonlinear stretching cylinder with nonlinear thermal radiation having gyrotatic microorganisms is not studied yet. The purpose is to study this.

This communication aims to develop the thermal flow model for generalized micropolar nanofluid with insensitive applications of bioconvection, activation energy and nonlinear thermal radiation. The generalized micropolar fluid model is the extension of traditional micropolar fluid model with viscoelastic relations. The viscous nature of non-Newtonian micropolar material can be successfully predicted with help of this model. The motivating idea for considering the motile microorganisms is to control the nanoparticles suspension effectively. The higher order slip relations are incorporated to examine the bio-convective phenomenon. The simplified coupled equations in terms of non-dimensional variables are numerically treated with shooting scheme. The reliable graphical outcomes are presented for flow parameters governed to the transported problem. The flow pattern of each parameter is highlighted in view of viscous nature of micropolar fluid.
