In the present investigation, problem of heat transfer has been studied during peristaltic motion of a viscous incompressible fluid for two-dimensional nonuniform channel with permeable walls under long wavelength and low Reynolds number approximation. Expressions for pressure, friction force, and temperature are obtained. The effects of different parameters on pressure, friction force, and temperature have been discussed through graphs.

The influences of Hall currents and heat transfer on peristaltic transport of a Newtonian fluid in a vertical asymmetric channel through a porous medium are investigated theoretically and graphically under assumptions of low Reynolds number and long wavelength. The flow is investigated in a wave frame of reference moving with the velocity of the wave. Analytical solutions have been obtained for temperature, axial velocity, stream function, pressure gradient, and shear stresses. The trapping phenomenon is discussed. Graphical results are sketched for various embedded parameters and interpreted.

Abstract The main objective of this article is to present a mathematical model for peristaltic transport in an inclined annulus. In this analysis, two-dimensional flow of a viscous nanofluid is observed in an inclined annulus with variable viscosity. Copper as nanoparticle with blood as its base fluid has been considered. The inner tube is unifom or rigid, while the outer tube takes a sinusoidal wave. Governing equations are solved under the well-known assumptions of low Reynolds number and long-wavelength. Exact solutions have been established for both velocity and nanoparticle temperature. The features of the peristaltic motion are explored by plotting graphs and discussed in detail

The purpose of this paper is to highlight the combined effects of heat transfer and slip characteristics of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fluid with variable viscosity in a channel. The slip condition is imposed in terms of shear stress. An analysis is performed to derive the perturbation solution for long wavelength and small Reynolds number assumptions. Expressions of stream function, temperature and heat transfer coefficient are constructed and discussed

This paper treats the two-dimensional steady flow of a viscous incompressible fluid driven through a channel bounded by two walls which are the radii of a sector and two arcs (the ‘inlet’ and ‘outlet’), with the same centre as the sector, at which inflow and outflow conditions are imposed. The computed flows are related to both a laboratory experiment and recent calculations of the linearized ‘spatial’ modes of Jeffery–Hamel flows. The computations, at a few values of the angle between the walls of the sector and several values of the Reynolds number, show how the first bifurcation of the flow in a channel is related to spatial instability. They also show how the end effects due to conditions at the inlet and outlet of the channel are related to the spatial modes: in particular, Saint-Venant's principle breaks down when the flow is spatially unstable, there being a temporally stable steady flow for which small changes at the inlet or outlet create substantial effects all along the channel. The choice of a sector as the shape of the channel is to permit the exploitation of knowledge of the spatial modes of Jeffery–Hamel flows, although we regard the sector as an example of channels with walls of moderate curvature.

Two-dimensional numerical computations have been performed in order to investigate the development characteristics of flow and thermal field in a flow between parallel plates swept by a visco-elastic fluid. In the present study, the effect of the cavity number in the domain and of Reynolds number was focused on when the geometric parameters were set constant. From the results, it is found that the flow penetration into the cavities effectively causes the heat transfer augmentation in the cavities in any cavity region compared with that of water case. It is also found that the development of thermal field in cases of the present visco-elastic fluid is quicker compared with that of water cases. The present heat transfer augmentation technique using Barus effect of a visco-elastic fluid is effective in the range of low Reynolds number.

The present investigation deals with the peristaltic flow of an incompressible Johnson–Segalman fluid in a curved channel. Effects of the channel wall properties are taken into account. The associated equations for peristaltic flow in a curved channel are modeled. Mathematical analysis is simplified under long wavelength and low Reynolds number assumptions. The solution expressions are established for small Weissenberg number. Effects of several embedded parameters on the flow quantities are discussed.

The present investigation is concerned with the problem of heat transfer and peristaltic flow of non-Newtonian fluid using Rabinowitsch fluid model through a channel under long wavelength and low Reynolds number approximation. Expressions for velocity, pressure gradient, pressure rise, friction force and temperature have been obtained. The effect of different parameters on velocity, pressure gradient, pressure rise, streamlines, friction force and temperature have been discussed through graphs.

Peristaltic transport due to a sinusoidal wave traveling on the boundary of a tube filled with an incompressible fluid is presented. Solution is obtained under infinite wavelength and zero Reynolds number in a finite length tube which extends the study of Li and Brasseur (1993, “Non-Steady Peristaltic Transport in Finite-Length Tubes,” J. Fluid Mech., 248, pp. 129–151). Boundary conditions are changed to include wall permeability. Analysis of pressure profile is described.
