| Summary: | This study focuses on understanding the bioconvection in Jeffery–Hamel (JH) flow, which has valuable applications in areas like converging dies, hydrology, and the automotive industry, which make it a topic of practical importance. This research aims to explore Homogeneous–Heterogeneous (HH) chemical reactions in a magnetic Darcy–Forchheimer model with bioconvection in convergent/divergent channels. To analyze the role of porosity, the Darcy–Forchheimer law is applied. The main system of equations is simplified through similarity transformation into ordinary differential equations solved numerically with the help of the NDSolve technique. The results, compared with previous studies for validation, are presented through graphs and tables. The study reveals that in divergent channels, the velocity decreases with higher solid volume fractions, while in convergent channels, it increases. Furthermore, various physical parameters, such as the Eckert number and porosity parameter, increase skin friction in divergent channels but decrease it in convergent channels. These findings suggest that the parameters investigated in this study can effectively enhance homogeneous reactions, providing valuable insights for practical applications. |
