Abstract
In this work, the peristaltic motion of a nano non-Newtonian fluid which obeys Carreau model through a porous medium inside an asymmetric channel is investigated. The hall current effects with Joule heating and viscous dissipation are considered. The problem is modulated mathematically by a set of nonlinear partial differential equations which describe the conservation of mass, momentum, energy and concentration of nanoparticles. The non-dimensional form of these equations is simplified under the assumption of long wavelength and low Reynolds number, and then resulting equations of coupled nonlinear differential equations are tackled numerically with appropriate boundary conditions. Graphical results are presented for dimensionless velocity, temperature, concentration and pressure gradient in order to illustrate the variations of various parameters of this problem on these obtained solutions.

Summary
The study of nanofluids flow has the interest of researches because of its applications in medicine, biochemistry and industrial engineering. Eldabe et al [25] have studied the magneto-hydrodynamic flow and heat transfer for a peristaltic motion of Carreau fluid through a porous medium. Eldabe et al [26] have studied the peristaltic motion of non-Newtonian fluid with heat and mass transfer through a porous medium in channel under uniform magnetic field. Ramesh and Devaker [29] have studied the effects of heat and mass transfer on the peristaltic transport of MHD couple stress fluid through porous medium in a vertical asymmetric channel. The main aim of this work is to study the peristaltic motion of a Carreau nanofluid with heat and mass transfer through a porous medium in an asymmetric channel under the effects of Hall current, viscous dissipation and Joule heating. A detailed mathematical formulation is presented and numerical solution graphically for velocity, temperature, nanoparticle phenomena and pressure gradient have been presented
