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.

This paper discusses the effects of both magnetic fields and heat and mass transfer on the flows of a peristaltic nature with incompressible Newtonian fluid mechanics in a channel. The study was conducted under the assumption of a low Reynolds number and a long wavelength. The analytical solution was deduced from velocity and temperature. The outcomes for velocity and temperature, presented analytically, were evaluated in a numerical form and discussed briefly. Non-dimensional wave amplitude impact, the magnetic field, Grashof number, and the volume rate of flow in the waveform were analyzed theoretically and computed numerically. The expressions for velocity, pressure gradient, pressure rise, temperature, fractional force of the internal and outer channels, and shear stress were sketched for various embedded parameters; afterward, they were accordingly interpreted. Results of a numerical nature were given and illustrated graphically in every case. The results acquired in the presence and lack of magnetic field were compared against each other. The outcomes imply that the effects of the magnetic field and heat and mass transfer were evident in the phenomena. The effects of various involved criteria manifesting in the solutions were meticulously assayed.

The present investigation is concerned with the problem of heat transfer and peristaltic flow of non-Newtonian fluid using Rabinowitsch fluid model through a channel under long wavelength and low Reynolds number approximation. Expressions for velocity, pressure gradient, pressure rise, friction force and temperature have been obtained. The effect of different parameters on velocity, pressure gradient, pressure rise, streamlines, friction force and temperature have been discussed through graphs.

In this paper, we study the impacts of variable viscosity , heat and mass transfer on magneto hydrodynamic (MHD) peristaltic flow in a asymmetric tapered inclined channel with porous medium . The viscosity is considered as a function of temperature. The slip conditions at the walls were taken into consideration. SmallReynolds number and the long wavelength approximations were used to simplify the governing equations. A comparison between the two velocities in cases of slip and no-slip was plotted. It was observed that the behavior of the velocity differed in the two applied models for some parameters. Mathematica software was used to estimate the exact solutions of temperature and concentration profiles. The resolution of the equations to the momentum was based on the perturbation method to find the axial velocity, pressure gradient and trapping phenomenon. The influences of the various flow parameters of the problem on these distributions were debated and proved graphically by figures.

The peristaltic flow of a carbon nanotubes (CNTs) water fluid investigate the effects of heat generation and magnetic field in permeable vertical diverging tube is studied. The mathematical formulation is presented, the resulting equations are solved exactly. The obtained expressions for pressure gradient, pressure rise, temperature, velocity profile are described through graphs for various pertinent parameters. The streamlines are drawn for some physical quantities to discuss the trapping phenomenon. It is observed that pressure gradient profile is decreasing by increase of Darcy number [Formula: see text] because Darcy number is due to porous permeable walls of the tube and when walls are porous fluid cannot easily flow in tube, so that will decrease the pressure gradient.
