Purpose This paper aims to intend for investigating the influence of an inclined magnetic field on the peristaltic flow of a couple stress fluid through an inclined channel with heat and mass transfer. Design/methodology/approach Long wavelength and low Reynolds number methodology is actualized for simplifying the highly nonlinear equations. Mathematical expressions of axial velocity, pressure gradient and volume flow rate are obtained. Pressure rise, frictional force and pumping phenomenon are portrayed and symbolized graphically. Exact and numerical solutions have been carried out. The computed results are presented graphically for various embedded parameters. Temperature and concentration profile are also scrutinized and sketched. Findings Results from the current study concluded that the fluid motion can be enhanced by increasing the inclination of both the magnetic field and the channel. Originality/value The elemental characteristics of this analysis is a complete interpretation of the influence of couple stress parameter and inclination of magnetic field on the velocity, pressure gradient, pressure rise and frictional forces.

In this paper, the influences of magnetic field and porous space of peristaltic flow of a Newtonian fluid in the tapered channel are studied. Flow analysis is also discussed in the presence of heat transfer. A model of wall-induced fluid flow within an infinite tapered channel having symmetric wall displacements and phase difference is developed. Expressions of dimensionless stream function and temperature are obtained analytically by employing long wavelength and low Reynolds number assumptions. The effects of various emerging parameters on the flow characteristics are shown and discussed with the help of graphs. It has been found that The geometric parameters likes, non-uniform parameter, amplitudes and phase difference control the fluid transport phenomena.

In this paper we have studied the effects of inclined magnetic field, porous medium and wall properties on the peristaltic transport of a Jeffry fluid in an inclined non-uniform channel. The basic governing equations are solved by using the infinite wave length and small Reynolds number assumptions. The analytical solutions have obtained for velocity and stream function. The variations in velocity for different values of important parameters have presented in graphs. The results are discussed for both uniform and non-uniform channels.
