Influence of Magnetic Force for Peristaltic Transport of Non-Newtonian Fluid Through Porous Medium in Asymmetric Channel

Peristaltic transport of a conducting fluid through a porous medium in an asymmetric vertical channel

The study of the mechanism of peristalsis in both mechanical and physiological situations has recently become the object of scientific research. Several theoretical and experimental attempts have been made to understand peristaltic action in different situations. A review of much of the early literature is presented in an article by Jaffrin and Shapiro (5). A summary of most of the experimental...

Influence of an external magnetic field on the peristaltic flow of a couple stress fluid through a porous medium.

Magnetohydrodynamic(MHD) peristaltic flow of a Couple Stress Fluid through a permeable channel is examined in this investigation. The flow analysis is performed in the presence of an External Magnetic Field. Long wavelength and low Reynolds number approach is implemented. Mathematical expressions of axial velocity, pressure gradient and volume flow rate are obtained. Pressure rise, frictional f...

Peristaltic flow of a Williamson fluid in an asymmetric channel through porous medium

Peristaltic transport of a Williamson fluid in an asymmetric channel through porous medium is studied under long wavelength and low Reynolds number assumptions. The nonlinear governing equations of the peristaltic flow are solved using perturbation method. The solution for the stream function is obtained by neglecting inertia and curvature effects. The velocity distribution, the volume flow rat...

Peristaltic Transport of a Jeffrey Fluid with Variable Viscosity through a Porous Medium in an Asymmetric Channel

The peristaltic flow of a Jeffrey fluid with variable viscosity through a porous medium in an asymmetric channel is investigated. The channel asymmetric is produced by choosing the peristaltic wave train on thewall of different amplitude and phase. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations for the Jeffrey fluid model are derived in Cartesian coordinates system. Analytic solutions f...
