Magnetohydrodynamic peristaltic flow of Jeffery fluid in an asymmetric channel is addressed. The channel walls satisfy the convective conditions. Asymmetry here is considered due to wave trains of different amplitudes and phases. Solutions for the velocity, temperature and pressure gradient are obtained using long wavelength approximation. Plots reflecting the impact of various parameters of interest are shown and examined.

This paper discusses the effects of variable viscosity and thermal conductivity on peristaltic flow of a Newtonian fluid in a vertical asymmetric channel. Both viscosity and thermal conductivity are considered as a function of temperature. The long wavelength approximation is used to linearize the governing equations. The system of the governing nonlinear partial differential equation is solved using the perturbation method. Solutions are obtained for the velocity field, the temperature and the concentration. Asymmetry in the flow is induced by traveling waves of different phase and amplitude that propagate along the channel walls. The numerical results show that variable viscosity and thermal conductivity have significant influence on velocity, temperature, and mass transfer. The importance of pertinent flow parameters entering into the flow modeling is discussed.

AbstractThe present work is the mathematical investigation of peristaltic flow of Rabinowitsch fluid in a curved channel. The current problem is modeled and solutions for non-dimensional differential equation are obtained under low Reynolds number and long wavelength approximation. The effects of long lasting non-dimensional parameters on exact solution for velocity profile, pressure rise and shear stresses are studied graphically in the last section. Tables are also incorporated for shear stresses at the walls of the curved channel.

We investigated the influence of heat and mass transfer on the peristaltic flow of magnetohydrodynamic Eyring-Powell fluid under low Reynolds number and long-wavelength approximation. The fluid flows between two infinite cylinders; the inner tube is uniform, rigid, and rest, while the outer flexible tube has a sinusoidal wave traveling down its wall. The governing equations are solved numerically using finite-difference technique. The velocity, temperature, and concentration distribution are obtained. The features of flow characteristics are analyzed by plotting graphs and discussed in detail.

In this article, we considered the peristaltic flow of Newtonian incompressible fluid of chyme in small intestine. The analysis has been performed using an endoscope. The peristaltic flow of chyme is modeled by assuming that the peristaltic wave is formed in non-periodic mode comprising two sinusoidal waves of different wave lengths propagating with same speed along the outer wall of the tube. Heat transfer mechanisms have been taken into account, such that the constant temperature [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are assigned to inner and outer tubes, respectively. A complex system of equations has been simplified using long wavelength and low Reynolds number approximation because such assumptions exist in small intestine. Exact solutions have been carried out for velocity temperature and pressure gradient. Graphical results have been discussed for pressure rise, frictional forces, temperature, and velocity profile. Comparison of present results with the results of the existing literature have been presented through figures. Trapping phenomena have been presented at the conclusion of the article.

ABSTRACTThis article addresses peristaltic flow of third order fluid in an asymmetric channel. Channel walls are subjected to the convective boundary conditions. The channel asymmetry is produced by choosing the peristaltic wave train on the walls to have different amplitudes and phase. Long wavelength approximation and perturbation method give the series solutions for the stream function, temperature and longitudinal pressure gradient. Analysis has been further carried out for pressure rise per wavelength through numerical integration. Several graphs of physical interest are displayed and discussed.

AbstractIn the article, the effects of the thermal viscosity and magnetohydrodynamic on the peristalsis of nanofluid are analyzed. The dominant neutralization is deduced through long wavelength approximation. The analytical solution of velocity and temperature is extracted by using steady perturbation. The pressure gradient and friction forces are obtained. Numerical results are calculated and contrasted with the debated theoretical results. These results are calculated for various values of Hartmann number, variable viscosity parameter and amplitude ratio. It is observed that the pressure gradient is reduced with an increase in the thermal viscosity parameter and that the Hartmann number enhances the pressure difference.

Abstract This research is devoted to the peristaltic flow of Eyring-Powell nanofluid in an asymmetric channel. Robins-type (convective) boundary conditions are employed in the presence of mixed convection and magnetic field. The basic equations of Eyring-Powell nanofluid are modeled in wave frame of reference. Long wavelength and low Reynolds number approach is utilized. Numerical solution of the governing problem is computed and analyzed. The effects of various parameters of interest on the velocity, pressure rise, concentration and temperature are discussed and illustrated graphically. Brownian motion parameter and thermophoresis parameter facilitates the increase in temperature of fluid. Biot numbers serve to reduce the temperature at channel walls.
