Popis: The current research article explores the bio-convection magnetized Carreau-nanofluid flow utilizing activation energy and magnetic dipole. Magnetic nanomaterials have significant effect on the magnetized behavior of ferrofluids which leads to robust the changes in fluid viscosity and thermophysical characteristics. Darcy-Forchheimer flow model is also present. Thermal conductivity of nanofluid is dependent on the temperature. Brownian motion and thermophoresis aspects are also accounted. The PDEs are reduced to set of ODEs via appropriate functions. Numerical solutions are achieved with the help of the famous bvp4c solver a built-in function in MATLAB. Numerous flow parameters are graphically and numerically presented with physical significance. The proposed findings could be useful for applications of extrusion systems, organic compounds, improved energy generation and improved manufacturing techniques.
