Abstract
AbstractThe aim of the present numerical investigation is to explore the impact of magnetic field on peristaltic flow of an incompressible tangent‐hyperbolic fluid in an asymmetric channel. The present physical model is developed based on the considered flow configuration and with the help of small Reynolds number approximations. The current flow problem is revealed under the influence of applied magnetic field. The asymmetric channel has been considered to narrate the present physical problem. Considered physical situation in the current investigation gives the unsteady coupled highly nonlinear system of partial differential equations. Also, the simplified equations for pressure, pressure gradient, and streamlines have been obtained with the help of suitable transformations. A regular perturbation scheme is employed to produce the semi‐analytical results of the present problem. The influence of various physical parameters on pressure, pressure gradient, and streamlines are illustrated with the help of graphs. From the present analysis, it is observed that the increasing magnetic number decreases the pressure and pressure gradient in the channel. Also, the size of trapping bolus increases with increasing values of Weissenberg number.
