Abstract

Effects of slip and induced magnetic field on the peristaltic flow of pseudoplastic fluid have been investigated. The corresponding shear stress is employed in defining the slip condition. The fluid is considered in a channel with non-conducting walls. The arising flow problem is solved in view of the assumptions of long wavelength and low Reynolds number. The stream function, pressure gradient and magnetic force function are computed. Pumping phenomenon is analyzed. Variations of pertinent involved parameters on the flow quantities of interest are described. Key words: Induced magnetic field, slip condition, pseudoplastic fluid.
