We investigate the peristaltic motion of Carreau fluid in an asymmetric channel with convective boundary conditions. Mathematical formulation is first reduced in a wave frame of reference and then solutions are constructed by long wavelength and low Reynolds number conventions. Results of the stream function, axial pressure gradient, temperature and pressure rise over a wavelength are obtained for small Weissenberg number. Velocity and temperature distributions are analyzed for different parameters of interest. A comparative study between the results of Newtonian and Carreau fluids is given.

ABSTRACTThis article addresses peristaltic flow of third order fluid in an asymmetric channel. Channel walls are subjected to the convective boundary conditions. The channel asymmetry is produced by choosing the peristaltic wave train on the walls to have different amplitudes and phase. Long wavelength approximation and perturbation method give the series solutions for the stream function, temperature and longitudinal pressure gradient. Analysis has been further carried out for pressure rise per wavelength through numerical integration. Several graphs of physical interest are displayed and discussed.

The present article addresses the peristaltic flow of a Jeffery fluid over an inclined axisymmetric porous tube with varying viscosity and thermal conductivity. Velocity slip and convective boundary conditions are considered. Resulting governing equations are solved using long wavelength and small Reynolds number approximations. The closed-form solutions are obtained for velocity, streamline, pressure gradient, temperature, pressure rise, and frictional force. The MATLAB numerical simulations are utilized to compute pressure rise and frictional force. The impacts of various physical parameters in the interims for time-averaged flow rate with pressure rise and is examined. The consequences of sinusoidal, multi-sinusoidal, triangular, trapezoidal, and square waveforms on physiological parameters are analyzed and discussed through graphs. The analysis reveals that the presence of variable viscosity helps in controlling the pumping performance of the fluid.

Abstract This research is devoted to the peristaltic flow of Eyring-Powell nanofluid in an asymmetric channel. Robins-type (convective) boundary conditions are employed in the presence of mixed convection and magnetic field. The basic equations of Eyring-Powell nanofluid are modeled in wave frame of reference. Long wavelength and low Reynolds number approach is utilized. Numerical solution of the governing problem is computed and analyzed. The effects of various parameters of interest on the velocity, pressure rise, concentration and temperature are discussed and illustrated graphically. Brownian motion parameter and thermophoresis parameter facilitates the increase in temperature of fluid. Biot numbers serve to reduce the temperature at channel walls.

Permeable Walls

The effect of permeable walls and magnetic field on the peristaltic flow of a Carreau fluid in a tapered asymmetric channel is studied. The tapered asymmetric channel is normally created due to the intra-uterine fluid flow induced by myometrial contractions and it was simulated by asymmetric peristaltic fluid flow in a two-dimensional infinite non-uniform channel. The analysis has been performed under long wavelength and low-Reynolds number assumptions to linearize the governing flow equations. A series solution in respect of a small Weissenberg number is obtained for the stream function, axial pressure gradient and shear stress. Time average of pressure rise and frictional force on the upper wall has also been computed using numerical integration. The results have been presented graphically for the various interested physical parameters. It is observed that for Carreau fluids the peristalsis works as a pump against a greater pressure rise compared with a Newtonian fluid, while there exists no significant difference in free pumping flux for Newtonian and Carreau fluids in the tapered asymmetric channel.

Peristaltic flow of viscous fluid in an asymmetric inclined channel with heat transfer and inclined magnetic field is examined. The convective boundary conditions have been handled. Complexity of emerging equations is simplified by utilizing long wavelength and low Reynolds number approximation. Variation of emerging parameters embedded in flow system are discussed. It is observed that an increase in Brikman number increases the temperature profile. Further, it is seen that temperature distribution is an increasing function of Biot number at lower wall.
