Transport in gut is important, not only for digestion, metabolism, and nutrient uptake, but also for microbiotic circumstance; however, hydrodynamic effects in the intestine have not been fully clarified. We provide the first quantitative evidence of the mechanical roles of anterograde and retrograde intestinal peristalses in the larval fish of Danio rerio by adopting physical parameters of diffusivity and pressure rise. The intestine transitionally regulates mixing and pumping functions by peristaltic propagations after feeding.

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.

Shear stress at the cilia wall is considered as an imperative factor that affects the efficiency of cilia beatings as it describes the momentum transfer between the fluid and the cilia. We consider a visco-inelastic Prandtl fluid in a ciliated channel under electro-osmotic pumping and the slippage effect at cilia surface. Cilia beating is responsible for the stimulation of the flow in the channel. Evenly distributed cilia tend to move in a coordinated rhythm to mobilize propulsive metachronal waves along the channel surface by achieving elliptic trajectory movements in the flow direction. After using lubrication approximations, the governing equations are solved by the perturbation method. The pressure rise per metachronal wavelength is obtained by numerically integrating the expression. The effects of the physical parameters of interest on various flow quantities, such as velocity, pressure gradient, pressure rise, stream function, and shear stress at the ciliated wall, are discussed through graphs. The analysis reveals that the axial velocity is enhanced by escalating the Helmholtz–Smoluchowski velocity and the electro-osmosis effects near the elastic wall. The shear stress at the ciliated boundary elevates with an increase in the cilia length and the eccentricity of the cilia structure.

Peristaltic motion of viscoelastic incompressible fluid in an axisymmetric tube with a sinusoidal wave is studied theoretically in the case that the radius of the tube is small relative to the wavelength. Oldroyd flow has been considered in this study and the problem is formulated and analyzed using a perturbation expansion in terms of the variation of the wave number. This analysis can model the chyme movement in the small intestine by considering the chyme as an Oldroyd fluid. We found out that the pumping rate of Oldroyd fluid is less than that for a Newtonian fluid. Further, the effects of Reynolds number, Weissenberg number, amplitude ratio and wave number on the pressure rise and friction force have been discussed. It is found that the pressure rise does not depend on Weissenberg number at a certain value of flow rate. The results are studied for various values of the physical parameters of interest.

In the present paper, we have studied the influence of heat transfer and magnetic field on a peristaltic transport of a Jeffrey fluid in an asymmetric channel with partial slip. The complicated Jeffrey fluid equations are simplified using the long wave length and low Reynolds number assumptions. In the wave frame of reference, an exact and closed form of Adomian solution is presented. The expressions for pressure drop, pressure rise, stream function, and temperature field have been calculated. The behaviour of different physical parameters has been discussed graphically. The pumping and trapping phenomena of various wave forms (sinusoidal, multisinusoidal, square, triangular, and trapezoidal) are also studied.

Special Cases

This study deals with the peristaltic transport of non-Newtonian Jeffrey fluid with uniformly distributed identical rigid particles in a rectangular duct. The effects of a magnetohydrodynamics bio-bi-phase flow are taken into account. The governing equations for mass and momentum are simplified using the fact that wavelength is much greater than the amplitude and small Reynolds number. A closed-form solution for velocity is obtained by means of the eigenfunction expansion method whereby pressure rise is numerically calculated. The results are graphically presented to observe the effects of different physical parameters and the suitability of the method. The results for hydrodynamic, Newtonian fluid, and single-phase problems can be respectively obtained by taking the Hartmann number (M = 0), relaxation time (λ1=0), and volume fraction (C = 0) as special cases of this problem.

The effect of permeable walls and magnetic field on the peristaltic flow of a Carreau fluid in a tapered asymmetric channel is studied. The tapered asymmetric channel is normally created due to the intra-uterine fluid flow induced by myometrial contractions and it was simulated by asymmetric peristaltic fluid flow in a two-dimensional infinite non-uniform channel. The analysis has been performed under long wavelength and low-Reynolds number assumptions to linearize the governing flow equations. A series solution in respect of a small Weissenberg number is obtained for the stream function, axial pressure gradient and shear stress. Time average of pressure rise and frictional force on the upper wall has also been computed using numerical integration. The results have been presented graphically for the various interested physical parameters. It is observed that for Carreau fluids the peristalsis works as a pump against a greater pressure rise compared with a Newtonian fluid, while there exists no significant difference in free pumping flux for Newtonian and Carreau fluids in the tapered asymmetric channel.

Inclined Asymmetric Channel

Peristaltic flow of a conducting Jeffrey fluid in an inclined asymmetric channel is investigated. The channel asymmetry is produced by considering a peristaltic wave train on the flexible walls of the channel with different amplitudes and phases. The nonlinear governing equations are solved analytically by a perturbation technique. The expressions for the stream function, axial velocity and the pressure rise per wavelength are determined in terms of the Jeffrey number λ1, the Froude number Fr, the perturbation parameter δ, the angle of inclination θ and the phase difference ϕ. Effects of the physical parameters on the velocity field and the pumping characteristics are discussed. It is observed that the size of the trapping bolus increase with an increase in the magnetic parameter and the volume flow rate. That is, the magnetic parameter and the volume flow rate have strong influence on the trapping bolus phenomenon.

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.

A serious pathological condition is encountered when some blood constituents deposited on the blood vessels get detached from the wall, join the blood stream again and form a clot. Study of the peristaltic transport of a micropolar fluid in an annular region is investigated under low Reynolds number and long wavelength approximations. We model a small artery as a tube having a sinusoidal wave travelling down its wall and a clot model inside it. Closed form solutions are obtained for the velocity and the microrotation components, as well as the stream function, and they contain new additional parameters, namely, δ, the height of the clot,N, the coupling number andm, the micropolar parameter. The pressure rise and friction force on the inner and the outer tubes have been discussed for various values of the physical parameters of interest.

Quantity Of Heat

Liquids are often pumped in closed loops to transfer heat from a high temperature source to a low temperature sink. They operate at low Reynolds number when the diameter of the pipe is small, the fluid velocity is low, or when the working liquid is very viscous. Ionic liquids, though environmentally friendly, typically have viscosities much larger than water. An analytical study is made of the process for the purpose of determining what the important physical parameters of the system are that will enable the largest quantity of heat to be transferred for unit work expended. For this purpose, a loop is considered that has a pump that generates a certain pressure rise and two heat exchangers, one for heating the fluid and the other for cooling it. Laminar flow that is fully-developed hy-drodynamically and thermally is assumed. The analysis is based on constant fluid properties, and analytical expressions are obtained for the heat rate and the work input.
