This paper is concerned with the analysis of peristaltic motion of a Jeffrey fluid in a tube with sinusoidal wave travelling down its wall. The effect of rotation, porous medium, and magnetic field on peristaltic transport of a Jeffrey fluid in tube is studied. The fluid is electrically conducting in the presence of rotation and a uniform magnetic field. An analytic solution is carried out for long wavelength, axial pressure gradient, and low Reynolds number considerations. The results for pressure rise and frictional force per wavelength were obtained, evaluated numerically, and discussed briefly.

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.

During the cancer treatment, one of the successful methods is to inject the blood vessels which are closest to the tumor with magnetic nanoparticles along with placing a magnet nearer to the tumor. The dynamics of these nanoparticles may happen under the action of the peristaltic waves generated on the walls of tapered asymmetric channel. Analyzing this type of nanofluid flow under such action may highly be supportive in treating cancer tissues. In this study, a newly described peristaltic transport of Carreau nanofluids under the effect of a magnetic field in the tapered asymmetric channel are analytically investigated. Exact expressions for temperature field, nanoparticle fraction field, axial velocity, stream function, pressure gradient and shear stress are derived under the assumptions of long wavelength and low Reynolds number. Finally, the effects of various emerging parameters on the physical quantities of interest are discussed. It is found that the pressure rise increases with increase in Hartmann Number and thermophoresis parameter.

Peristaltic flow of a Jeffrey fluid in an inclined asymmetric channel is undertaken when the no-slip condition at the channel wall is no longer valid. The considered fluid is incompressible and electrically conducting. The flow is investigated in a waveframe of reference moving with the velocity of the wave. The analytic solution has been derived for the stream function under long wavelength and low Reynolds number assumptions. The effect of slip and non-Newtonian parameter on the axial velocity and shear stress are discussed in detail. The salient features of pumping and trapping are discussed with particular focus on the effect of slip and non-Newtonian parameters.

In this paper, the effects of peristaltic transport with double-diffusive convection in nanofluids through an asymmetric channel with different waveforms is presented. Mathematical modeling for two-dimensional and two-directional flows of a Jeffery fluid model along with double-diffusive convection in nanofluids are given. Exact solutions are obtained for nanoparticle fraction field, concentration field, temperature field, stream functions, pressure gradient and pressure rise in terms of axial and transverse coordinates under the restrictions of long wavelength and low Reynolds number. With the help of computational and graphical results, the effects of Brownian motion, thermospheres, Dufour, Soret and Grashof numbers (thermal, concentration, nanoparticles) on peristaltic flow patterns with double-diffusive convection are discussed.

In order to determine the characteristics of peristaltic transport of magnetohydrodynamic flow through a porous medium, the motion of a hydromagnetic (electrically conducting), viscous, and incompressible fluid in planer channel filled with a homogeneous porous medium and having electrically insulated walls that are transversely displaced by an infinite, harmonic travelling wave of large wavelength was analyzed using a perturbation expansion in terms of a variant wave number. We obtain an explicit form for the velocity field, a relation between the pressure rise and flow rate, in terms of Reynolds number, wave number, Hartmann number, permeability parameter, and the occlusion. The effects of all parameters of the problem are numerically discussed and graphically explained.

The present analysis deals with the intra-uterine nanofluid flow of a Jeffrey fluid through a finite asymmetric channel filled with gold nanoparticles. Gold nanoparticles are helpful in biomedicine to treat various diseases and locate blood flow motion through tiny vessels. The governing fluid is electrically conducting due to the presence of an extrinsic magnetic field while the magnetic Reynolds number is small; therefore, the induced magnetic effects are neglected. The thermal radiation and viscous dissipation effects are also contemplated with the energy equation. The lubrication approach has been utilized by taking a long wavelength and ignoring the inertial forces. The formulated equations are coupled and nonlinear; therefore, a perturbation approach is used to derive the series results. The results are obtained up to the second-order and plotted against various parameters for velocity mechanism, trapping profile, pressure rise, and temperature profile.

We carry out the effect of the induced magnetic field on peristaltic transport of an incompressible conducting micropolar fluid in a symmetric channel. The flow analysis has been developed for low Reynolds number and long wavelength approximation. Exact solutions have been established for the axial velocity, microrotation component, stream function, magnetic-force function, axial-induced magnetic field, and current distribution across the channel. Expressions for the shear stresses are also obtained. The effects of pertinent parameters on the pressure rise per wavelength are investigated by means of numerical integrations, also we study the effect of these parameters on the axial pressure gradient, axial-induced magnetic field, as well as current distribution across the channel and the nonsymmetric shear stresses. The phenomena of trapping and magnetic-force lines are further discussed.

The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) peristaltic flow of the fractional Jeffrey fluid through porous medium in a nonuniform channel is presented. The fractional calculus is considered in Darcy’s law and the constitutive relationship which included the relaxation and retardation behavior. Under the assumptions of long wavelength and low Reynolds number, the analysis solutions of velocity distribution, pressure gradient, and pressure rise are investigated. The effects of fractional viscoelastic parameters of the generalized Jeffrey fluid on the peristaltic flow and the influence of magnetic field, porous medium, and geometric parameter of the nonuniform channel are presented through graphical illustration. The results of the analogous flow for the generalized second grade fluid, the fractional Maxwell fluid, are also deduced as special cases. The comparison among them is presented graphically.

Abstract An unsteady mixed convection flow of a visco-elastic, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid in a hot vertical channel is analyzed. The vertical channel is filled with a porous medium. The temperature of one of the channel plates is considered to be fluctuating span-wise cosinusoidally, i.e., $T^* \left( {y^* ,z^* ,t^* } \right) = T_1 + \left( {T_2} - {T_ 1} \right)\cos \left( {{{\pi z^* } \over d} - \omega ^* t^* } \right)$ . A magnetic field of uniform strength is applied perpendicular to the planes of the plates. The magnetic Reynolds number is assumed very small so that the induced magnetic field is neglected. It is also assumed that the conducting fluid is gray, absorbing/emitting radiation and non-scattering. Governing equations are solved exactly for the velocity and the temperature fields. The effects of various flow parameters on the velocity, temperature and the skin friction and the Nusselt number in terms of their amplitudes and phase angles are discussed with the help of figures.
