AbstractThere is an intense worldwide activity in the development of instrumentation for medical diagnosis and bioscreening based on biological labeling and detection of nanoparticles. Based on this profound observation, Hall and ion slip effects on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) free convective rotating flow of nanofluids in a porous medium past a moving vertical semi-infinite flat plate are investigated. The equations for governing flow are solved analytically by perturbation approximation. The effects of various parameters on the flow are discussed through graphs and tables. The velocity increases with Hall and ion slip parameters. An increase in the convective parameter led to amplify the thermal boundary layer thickness, but when the heat generation parameter is taken into consideration, an opposite effect occurs. The skin friction coefficient increases with an increase in nanoparticle volume fraction and it reduces with increase in Hall and ion slip parameters. Outcomes disclose that the impact of thermal convection of nanoparticles has increased the temperature distribution, which helps in destroying the cancer cells during the drug delivery process.
