This article studies the hydromagnetic peristaltic flow of couple stress fluids through the gap between two concentric channels containing a Darcian porous medium, with the inner channel being rigid. A sinusoidal wave propagates along the outer channel. Long wavelength and low Reynolds number assumptions are used. The effects of couple stress parameter, magnetic field, permeability, and the channel ratio width on pressure and frictional forces on the inner and outer channels are depicted graphically. Mechanical efficiency and trapping are also studied. Pressure diminishes with increasing coupling and permeability parameters whereas it increases with Hartmann number and channel width ratio. Applications of the model include transport of complex bio-waste fluids and magnetic field control of gastro-intestinal disorders.

Aligned Magnetic Field

We analyse the effects of aligned magnetic field, radiation, and rotation on unsteady hydromagnetic free convection flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid past an impulsively moving vertical plate in a porous medium in presence of heat source. An exact solution of the governing equations in dimensionless form is obtained by Laplace transform technique in ramped temperature case. To compare the results obtained in this case with that of isothermal plate, the exact solution of the governing equations is also obtained for isothermal plate and results are discussed graphically in both ramped temperature and isothermal cases.
