This mathematical study is related to heat transfer under peristaltic flow of fractional second-grade fluid through nonuniform cylindrical tube with permeable walls. The analysis is performed under low Reynolds number and long wavelength approximation. The analytical solution for pressure gradient, friction force, and temperature field is obtained. The effects of appropriate parameters such as Grashof number, nonuniformity of tube, permeability of tube wall, heat source/sink parameter, material constant, fractional time derivative parameter and amplitude ratio on pressure rise, friction force, and temperature distribution are discussed. It is found that an increase in amplitude ratio and material constant causes increase in pressure but increase in nonuniformity of the tube causes decrease in pressure. It is also observed that variation of friction force against flow rate shows opposite behavior to that of pressure. Increase in temperature is also observed due to increase in heat source/sink parameter at inlet as well as downstream.

The current investigation is communicated to analyze the characteristics of Darcy–Forchheimer second-grade fluid flow enclosed by a deformable sheet in the existence of both variable thermal conductivity and magnetohydrodynamics. The leading nonlinear energy and momentum partial differential equations are converted into nonlinear ordinary differential equations by utilizing suitable analogous approach. Then the acquired nonlinear problem is numerically calculated by utilizing BVP4C (built in) technique in MATLAB. The influence of certain appropriate physical parameters, namely wall thickness, second-grade fluid, Hartmann number, power index, porosity parameter, inertia coefficient, Prandtl number, and thermal conductivity, on temperature and velocity is studied and deliberated in detail. Numerical calculations of Nusselt number and skin friction for distinct estimations of appearing parameters are analysed through graphs and tables.
