Abstract

In the present article, we have discussed the closed-form analytical and numerical solutions of the peristaltic flow of a Jeffrey fluid in an inclined tube with different viscosities and with different wave shapes. The closed-form analytical solutions have been computed by Adomian decomposition method and the numerical solutions have been calculated using finite difference technique. A comparison of numerical and analytical solutions have been presented and found a very good agreement between the two solutions. The expressions for pressure rise and friction forces are computed using numerical integration with the help of mathematics software. At the end various physical parameters appearing in the problem are shown pictorially and the results have been discussed in detail. The phenomena for different wave shape are also discussed.
