Effect of couple stress fluid on MHD peristaltic motion and heat transfer with partial slip in an inclined asymmetric channel

Abstract

In this investigation we have analyzed the effect of variable couple stress fluid on the peristaltic flow of non-Newtonian fluid in an inclined asymmetric channel . The relevant equations have been modeled. Analysis has been carried out in the presence of velocity and thermal slip conditions. Expressions for stream function, temperature, pressure gradient and heat transfer coefficients are derived. Numerical integration has been performed for pressure rise per wavelength. Plots are presented and analyzed for various embedded parameters into the problem. This study is done through drawing many graphs by using the MATHEMATICA package.
