Abstract
In this article, we have investigated a non-Newtonian Jeffrey fluid model, which shows the role of cilia generated metachronal waves in a vertical tube. Electroosmosis effects, a viscous dissipation term is also adopted in this current analysis. The partial differential equations that govern the flow are transformed into a non-dimensional form by considering a low wavelength and small Reynolds number approximations. The obtained set of coupled ordinary differential equations is further solved by using Mathematica solver to get the required flow properties. The current model's output has important heat transfer rate applications in the ciliated channel due to the enhanced viscous dissipation effects, which can be used for the analysis of various areas of biological transport processes such as to design artificial cilia and for the operation of some mechanical devices.
