Abstract

Here peristaltic activity for flow of a Prandtl-Eyring material is modeled and analyzed for curved geometry. Heat transfer analysis is studied using more generalized convective conditions. The channel walls satisfy complaint walls properties. Viscous dissipation in the thermal equation accounted. Unlike the previous studies is for uniform magnetic field on this topic, the radial applied magnetic field has been utilized in the problems development. Solutions for stream function (ψ), velocity (u), and temperature (θ) for small parameter β have been derived. The salient features of heat transfer coefficient Z and trapping are also discussed for various parameters of interest including magnetic field, curvature, material parameters of fluid, Brinkman, Biot and compliant wall properties. Main observations of present communication have been included in the conclusion section.

Highlights

  • Peristaltic transport holds a considerable position in physiology and engineering

  • Advancement is made about the interaction of magnetohydrodynamics in peristalsis, which finds great importance in connection with certain problems for motion of conductive fluids in physiology, for instance, the blood and blood pumps machines, hyperthermia, cancer therapy, drug delivery transport, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and theoretical research about operation of peristaltic magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) compressors

  • The facts of present attempt is to advance the theory of peristalsis of non-Newtonian materials via three important aspects i.e. curved channel, convective heat transfer condition and radial magnetic field

Summary

Introduction

Peristaltic transport holds a considerable position in physiology and engineering. Extensive research has been addressed under different situations since the seminal works of Latham [1] and Shapiro et al [2]. The facts of present attempt is to advance the theory of peristalsis of non-Newtonian materials via three important aspects i.e. curved channel, convective heat transfer condition and radial magnetic field. Section three includes solution expressions for the stream function, temperature and heat transfer coefficient.
