The present article summarized the effects of a magnetic dipole for nonlinear radiative flow of ferromagnetic Jeffrey fluid consisting of gyrotactic microorganisms and nanoparticles. The analysis is presented to study the heat, mass and motile microorganisms transfer rates in absence of viscous dissipation. The nonlinear thermal radiation, non-uniform heat generation/absorption, binary chemical reaction, thermal, solutal and motile microorganism stratification are also accounted. Apposite transformations are employed to convert the governing partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations. Numerical results are computed by means of the Shooting method with Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method and then presented in graphs and tabular form. Numerical values for the skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt number, Sherwood number and local density number of motile microorganisms are computed and analyzed. Comparison between the present results with previously published results is in excellent harmony. (C) 2020 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
