In this paper, we have discussed the food movement in stomach with thermal boundary conditions. Eyring–Prandtl fluid model is considered. Formulation of the considered phenomena have been developed for both fixed and moving frame of references. Regular perturbation is used to find the solution of stream function, temperature profile and pressure gradient. Analysis has been carried out for velocity, "stream function, temperature, pressure gradient and heat transfer". Appearance of pressure gradient is quite complicated so to get the expression for pressure rise we have used numerical integration. It is perceived that the velocity close to the channel walls is not same in outlook of the Eyring–Prandtl fluid parameter taken as β and Hartman number M. The velocity decreases by increasing β and M.

In this article, we discuss the entropy generation on the asymmetric peristaltic propulsion of non-Newtonian fluid with convective boundary conditions. The Williamson fluid model is considered for the analysis of flow properties. The current fluid model has the ability to reveal Newtonian and non-Newtonian behavior. The present model is formulated via momentum, entropy, and energy equations, under the approximation of small Reynolds number and long wavelength of the peristaltic wave. A regular perturbation scheme is employed to obtain the series solutions up to third-order approximation. All the leading parameters are discussed with the help of graphs for entropy and temperature profiles. The irreversibility process is also discussed with the help of Bejan number. Streamlines are plotted to examine the trapping phenomena. Results obtained provide an excellent benchmark for further study on the entropy production with mass transfer and peristaltic pumping mechanism.

In the present analysis, we have modeled the governing equations of a two dimensional hyperbolic tangent fluid model. Using the assumption of long wavelength and low Reynolds number, the governing equations of hyperbolic tangent fluid for an asymmetric channel have been solved using the regular perturbation method. The expression for pressure rise has been calculated using numerical integrations. At the end, various physical parameters have been shown pictorially. It is found that the narrow part of the channel requires a large pressure gradient, also in the narrow part the pressure gradient decreases with the increase in Weissenberg number We and channel width d.

Present study examines the mixed convective peristaltic transport of Cu–H2O nanofluid with velocity slip and convective boundary conditions. Analysis is performed using the two-phase model of the nanofluid. Viscous dissipation and heat generation/absorption effects are also taken into account. Problem is formulated using the long wavelength and low Reynolds number approach. Numerical solutions for the pressure rise per wavelength, pressure gradient, axial velocity, temperature and heat transfer rate at the boundary are obtained and studied through graphs. Results show that the area of peristaltic pumping decreases with an increase in the nanoparticles volume fraction. Increase in the velocity slip parameter shows an increase of the pressure gradient in the occluded part of the channel. Further, addition of copper nanoparticles reduces both the axial velocity and temperature of the base fluid. Temperature of the nanofluid also decreases sufficiently for an increase in the value of Biot number.

The present article addresses the peristaltic flow of a Jeffery fluid over an inclined axisymmetric porous tube with varying viscosity and thermal conductivity. Velocity slip and convective boundary conditions are considered. Resulting governing equations are solved using long wavelength and small Reynolds number approximations. The closed-form solutions are obtained for velocity, streamline, pressure gradient, temperature, pressure rise, and frictional force. The MATLAB numerical simulations are utilized to compute pressure rise and frictional force. The impacts of various physical parameters in the interims for time-averaged flow rate with pressure rise and is examined. The consequences of sinusoidal, multi-sinusoidal, triangular, trapezoidal, and square waveforms on physiological parameters are analyzed and discussed through graphs. The analysis reveals that the presence of variable viscosity helps in controlling the pumping performance of the fluid.

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the theoretical study of a nonlinear problem of cilia induced flow by considering the fluid as anincompressible non-Newtonian fluid (hyperbolic tangent fluid) model by means of ciliated walls. The leading equations of present flow problem are simplified under the consideration of long-wavelength approximation. We have utilized regular perturbation technique to solve the simplified leading equations of hyperbolic tangent fluid model. The analytical solution is computed for stream function and numerical solution is computed for the rise in pressure. The characteristics of the ciliary system on tangent hyperbolic fluid are analyzed graphically and discussed in detail. It has been found that when [Formula: see text], the results of pressure rise coincide with the results of Newtonian fluid. It has also been observed that the size of the trapping bolus decreases with an increase in Hartmann number and Weissenberg number.

The present article deals with variable viscosity on the peristaltic transport of bile in an inclined duct under the action of slip boundary conditions. The wall geometry is described by the sinusoidal wave propagating in the axial direction with different amplitude and with constant speed. The flow of fluid is examined in a wave frame of reference, moving with the velocity of the wave.  Mathematical modeling of the problem includes equations of motion and continuity. The fluid flow is investigated by converting the equations into a non-dimensionalized form simplified considering long wavelength and low Reynolds number approximation. The analytic expressions for axial velocity, pressure gradient, and pressure rise over a single wavelength cycle are obtained. The impact of various parameters such as slip parameter, viscosity parameter, angle of inclination, gravity parameter and amplitude ratio on axial velocity, pressure gradient and pressure rise are discussed in detail by plotting graphs in MATLAB R2018b software. In this article, a comparison of linear and nonlinear variation of viscosity of bile has been made. It is concluded that velocity and pressure rise is more in case linear variation of viscosity, whereas more pressure gradient is required in case of nonlinear variation of viscosity.

In the present article, we have studied the Rabinowitsch fluid model for the peristaltic flow. The non-Newtonian nature of the fluid is analyzed mathematically by considering the Rabinowitsch fluid. The Rabinowitsch fluid model for the peristaltic flow is not discussed so far. This is the first article describing the features of Rabinowitsch fluid in peristaltic literature. The fluid is flowing in a uniform tube with the wave motion. Exact solutions have been calculated for velocity and pressure gradient. The physical behavior of different parameters for velocity, pressure rise, streamlines, and pressure gradient have been examined graphically. It is observed that when Weissenberg number is large then the relaxation time of the fluid is greater than a specific process time in which the pressure rise increases rapidly in the peristaltic pumping regions. Trapping phenomena have been discussed at the end of the article
