Simultaneous Effects of Slip Conditions and Wall Properties on MHD Peristaltic Flow of a Maxwell Fluid with Heat Transfer
The effects of both wall slip conditions and heat transfer on the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) peristaltic flow of a Maxwell fluid in a porous planar channel with elastic wall properties have been studied. Mathematical formulation is based upon the modified Darcy’s law. The analytical solution has been derived for the stream function and temperature under the assumptions of small wave number.The results obtained in the analysis have been discussed numerically and explained graphically.
Influence of partial slip on the peristaltic flow in a porous medium
In this paper, the slip effects are discussed on the peristaltic flow of a viscous fluid in a porous medium. A long wavelength approximation is used in the flow modelling. The solutions for stream function and axial velocity are constructed by employing the Adomian decomposition method. Numerical integration has been used for the pumping and trapping phenomena. Graphs illustrate the physical behavior. It is noted that the size of the trapped bolus decreases and its symmetry disappears for large values of the slip parameter. Further, the peristaltic pumping rate decreases by increasing the slip parameter.
Peristaltic transport of Johnson-Segalman fluid under effect of a magnetic field
The peristaltic transport of Johnson-Segalman fluid by means of an infinite train of sinusoidal waves traveling along the walls of a two-dimensional flexible channel is investigated. The fluid is electrically conducted by a transverse magnetic field. A perturbation solution is obtained for the case in which amplitude ratio is small. Numerical results are reported for various values of the physical parameters of interest.
