This work presents an in-depth examination of heat and mass transfer phenomena in a radiative and chemically reactive magneto-micropolar nanofluid flow under the influence of convective boundary conditions. The governing equations of the model, represented in their non-linear form via Falkner and Skan transformations, are scrutinized using the Finite Element Method (FEM). Validation with existing literature corroborates the precision of the proposed model. Analyses of the results elucidate the impacts of various parameters on the temperature, species concentration, micro-rotation, and velocity characteristics of the system. Notably, an enhancement in the thermal conductivity of the magneto-micropolar nanofluid is observed in correlation with an increased nanoparticles volume fraction. A positive relationship is discerned between the temperature and the parameters for radiation and convective boundary conditions. Furthermore, a decrement in the Schmidt number is associated with an accelerated diffusion rate. The findings derived from this study hold substantial implications for practical applications in diverse fields such as heat and cooling systems, enhanced oil recovery, thermal management in electronics, material processing, and nanofluidics. This research thus contributes to the existing body of knowledge by offering an intricate understanding of the behavior and manipulation of magnetomicropolar nanofluid flow.
