Abstract
The purpose of this manuscript is to analyze the electroosmotic peristaltic motion of graphene-lubrication oil nanofluid. Rheological characteristics of such fluids are predicted by using the Carreau’s model. Effects of magnetic field, electric field, viscous dissipation, Joule heating, Brownian motion and thermophoresis are also reckoned. Debye-Hückel linearization and lubrication approach are employed in mathematical modeling. Obtained non-linear system of equations are analytically solved by using the builtin command NdSolve and parametric study is carried out to visualize the variation in temperature, velocity, heat transfer rate, concentration profiles, pressure gradient and pressure rise per wavelength. Results unveil that strong electroosmotic parameter enhances both velocity and temperature. Temperature and velocity decline on the enlargement of the Helmholtz-Smoluchowski velocity. Variation in electroosmotic parameter decreases and Helmholtz-Smoluchowski velocity increases mass transfer rate. Pumping region can also be maintained by thickening and thinning the Electric Double Layer (EDL). Present study has useful applications in industries, defect sensor, energy saving, domestic air conditioning, cooling power electronic components and heat extraction and heat transportation.
