    Buongiorno's nanofluid model is followed to study the bioconvection in two stretchable rotating disks with entropy generation. Similarity transformations are used to handle the problem equations for non-dimensionality. For the simulation of the modeled equations, Homotopy Analysis Method is applied. The biothermal system is explored for all the embedded parameters whose effects are shown through different graphs. There exists interesting results due to the effects of different parameters on different profiles. Radial velocity decreases with increasing stretching and magnetic field parameters. Temperature increases with Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameters. Nanoparticles concentration decreases on increasing Lewis number and thermophoresis parameter while motile gyrotactic microorganisms profile increases with increasing Lewis and Peclet numbers. Convergence of the solution is found and good agreement is obtained when the results are compared with published work.

    The behavior of an Oldroyd-B nanoliquid film sprayed on a stretching cylinder is investigated. The system also contains gyrotactic microorganisms with heat and mass transfer flow. Similarity transformations are used to make the governing equations non-dimensional ordinary differential equations and subsequently are solved through an efficient and powerful analytic technique namely homotopy analysis method (HAM). The roles of all dimensionless profiles and spray rate have been investigated. Velocity decreases with the magnetic field strength and Oldroyd-B nanofluid parameter. Temperature is increased with increasing the Brownian motion parameter while it is decreased with the increasing values of Prandtl and Reynolds numbers. Nanoparticle's concentration is enhanced with the higher values of Reynolds number and activation energy parameter. Gyrotactic microorganism density increases with bioconvection Rayleigh number while it decreases with Peclet number. The film size naturally increases with the spray rate in a nonlinear way. A close agreement is achieved by comparing the present results with the published results.
