The Influence of inclined magnetic field, heat and mass transfer on the
peristaltic flow of blood in an inclined asymmetric channel with
variable viscosity
Abstract
The present study investigates the effects of inclined magnetic field,
heat source/sink, and concentration on the peristaltic flow of blood in
an inclined asymmetric channel with variable viscosity. Mathematical
analysis has been carried out in the presence of aligned magnetic field.
The flow is examined in a wavy frame of references moving with the
velocity of the wave. The physical problem is the first model, and then,
the analytic solution is carried out under long–wavelength and
low-Reynolds number approximation. The expressions for velocity,
temperature, concentration, pressure gradient, tangential stress and
heat transfer coefficient are obtained. The results for the pressure
rise and frictional force have also been computed numerically. Numerical
results are graphically discussed for various values of physical
parameters of interest.
