Impact of heat transfer on peristaltic flow of nanofluid and its applications in real world problems

Abstract

Nanofluids with peristaltic flows are being studied in depth because they can be used in so many different ways, such as to diagnose and treat diseases. In this paper, the peristaltic flow of a nanofluid with viscosity and electric conductivity that change with temperature is used. There are different base fluids and nanoparticles that are being thought about. First, the governing equations are modeled, and then they are made easier to understand by assuming that the wavelength is long and the Reynolds number is small. To make a dimensionless differential system, the right dimensionless numbers are added. Mathematica’s built-on function NDSolve is used to figure out the numerical solution of the resulting system. To figure out how fast heat moves, researchers compare different combinations of base fluids and nanoparticles.
