Magnesium blood nanoparticles mixed with Powell-Eyring fluid embedded in a stratified medium

Abstract

Recently, researchers have been focusing on the treatment of diseases caused by magnesium deficiency. Hypomagnesaemia is caused by a lack of magnesium in the blood, which is a further stimulus for various diseases such as vomiting, sleepiness, nausea, loss of appetite and so on. To compensate for this deficiency, magnesium is injected as a nanoparticle into the blood (base fluid). To convey this magnesium deficiency the Powell-Eyring (Magnesium-Blood) nanofluid flow is deformed by the linearly stretchable sheet near the stagnation point in the presence of an inclined magnetic field and joule heating. Here, we also found thermal stratification and nonlinear thermal radiation. The resulting equations are converted to dimensionless form using similarity transformations and solved by the bvp4c method. Graphs and tables are used to investigate the impact of relevant factors on the flow profile. The non-linear radiative parameter is enhanced, resulting in a decrease in blood flow temperature and an increase in heat transfer. As the malting parameter is increased, we see a decrease in temperature and an increase in the velocity of magnesium blood flow. Enriched magnesium nanoparticles are added to medicine to benefit patients, depending on their health conditions.
