متن کاملEffect of Chemical Reaction on Bioconvective Flow in Oxytactic Microorganisms Suspended Porous Cavity
In this paper, the bioconvective flow in a porous square cavity containing oxytactic microorganism in the presence of chemical reaction is investigated. The bioconvection flow and heat transfer in porous media are formulated based on the Darcy model of Boussinesq approximation. The governing partial differential equations are solved using the Galerkin finite element method. The computational nu...
