In the present paper, we have studied the influence of heat transfer and magnetic field on a peristaltic transport of a Jeffrey fluid in an asymmetric channel with partial slip. The complicated Jeffrey fluid equations are simplified using the long wave length and low Reynolds number assumptions. In the wave frame of reference, an exact and closed form of Adomian solution is presented. The expressions for pressure drop, pressure rise, stream function, and temperature field have been calculated. The behaviour of different physical parameters has been discussed graphically. The pumping and trapping phenomena of various wave forms (sinusoidal, multisinusoidal, square, triangular, and trapezoidal) are also studied.

During the cancer treatment, one of the successful methods is to inject the blood vessels which are closest to the tumor with magnetic nanoparticles along with placing a magnet nearer to the tumor. The dynamics of these nanoparticles may happen under the action of the peristaltic waves generated on the walls of tapered asymmetric channel. Analyzing this type of nanofluid flow under such action may highly be supportive in treating cancer tissues. In this study, a newly described peristaltic transport of Carreau nanofluids under the effect of a magnetic field in the tapered asymmetric channel are analytically investigated. Exact expressions for temperature field, nanoparticle fraction field, axial velocity, stream function, pressure gradient and shear stress are derived under the assumptions of long wavelength and low Reynolds number. Finally, the effects of various emerging parameters on the physical quantities of interest are discussed. It is found that the pressure rise increases with increase in Hartmann Number and thermophoresis parameter.
