Abstract: Hall and ion slip impacts on MHD rotating free convective flow of Ag-water based nanofluids in a
permeable medium past a moving vertical plate are assessed. The nanoparticles of a smaller size than that of the
matrix pores are suspended in nanofluid using either surfactant or surface change technology, preventing the
agglomeration and deposition of these on the porous matrix. The governing flow equations are solved empirically by
perturbation appraisement. Impacts of numerous parameters on the flow are addressed by means of graphs and
tables. The velocity increases with Hall and ion slip parameters. The skin friction coefficient increases with an
increase in nano-particle volume fraction and it reduces with increase in Hall and ion slip parameters. The
conclusions unveil that the blow of thermal convection of nanoparticles has increased the temperature distribution,
which helps in destroying the cancer cells during the drug delivery process. This model for studying flow through
porous media explains the development of bio-convection patterns generated by populations of gravitactic
microorganisms in porous media.
