The linear stability of plane Poiseuille flow at low Reynolds number of a conducting Oldroyd fluid in the presence of a transverse magnetic field has been investigated numerically. Spectral tau method with expansions in Chebyshev polynomials is used to solve the Orr-Sommerfeld equation. It is found that viscoelastic parameters have destabilizing effect and magnetic field has a stabilizing effect in the field of flow. But no instabilities are found.

The flow of a viscous fluid due to symmetric peristaltic waves propagating on the horizontal sidewalls of a rectangular duct is studied under the assumptions of long wavelength and low Reynolds number. The effect of aspect ratio β, ratio of height to width, on the pumping characteristics is discussed in detail. The results are compared to with those corresponding to Poiseuille flow.
