Abstract

The present study investigates the heat and flow characteristics of mixed convective peristaltic transport of nanofluids containing magnetite γAl2O3 nanomaterials dispersed in conventional liquids, namely, ethylene glycol (C2H6O2) and water (H2O). The research provides a comprehensive analysis, considering various factors such as induced magnetic field, variable viscosity, buoyancy force, viscous dissipation, and porous media effects. The mathematical model is formulated based on a set of governing equations encompassing continuity, temperature, momentum, and induction, which are subsequently transformed into dimensionless form through appropriate scaling. A numerical method is employed to solve the resulting nonlinear differential equations. Results indicate that the velocity profile exhibits substantially higher magnitudes in the case of the γAl2O3-C2H6O2 nanoliquid when compared to the γAl2O3-H2O nanoliquid. Increasing the magnetic Reynolds number leads to a higher magnitude of the axial-induced magnetic field. An observed reduction in system entropy is associated with an increase in the permeability parameter.
