Abstract

In current study, the non-Newtonian Prandtl fluid (blood) with exposure of Titanium dioxide nanoparticles is used as a base fluid. The symplectic metachoronal wave technique is employed. The lubrication theory and Debye–Huckel linearization method are utilized to simplify the governing equations. For explicit solution, Adomian decomposition method (ADM) is chosen. Graphical results for various scenarios are presented to illustrate the critical findings. It is revealed that the flow rate is accelerated by a Helmholtz-Smoluchowski velocity parameter, Hartmann number, and the slip parameter, while the electrokinetic factor deaccelerates it. Thermal conveyance quantity of nano-fluid is considerably boost up with higher values of the Hartmann, Helmholtz-Smoluchowski velocity, Prandtl fluid parameters, and Brinkmann numbers. It is noted that the effects of magnetic field and electroosmosis with convective boundary slip help for proper functioning of ciliated epithelial cells.
