摘要
The nanofluid model containing microorganisms over a rotating disk with power-law stretching is constructed in this paper. The combined effects of nanoparticles and microorganisms in nanofluid are investigated by solving the governing equations numerically. The numerical solutions of the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number are in agreement with the corresponding previously published results. The quantities of physical interest are graphically presented and discussed in detail. It is found that the power-law stretching index has produced profound influence on the flow as well as the heat and mass transfer.
