Combined effect of heat and mass transfer on mhd peristaltic transport of a couple stress fluid in a inclined asymmetric channel through a porous medium

Abstract

This paper describes the combined effect of heat and mass transfer on two dimensional peristaltic transport of a couple stress fluid in the presence of heat absorption in a inclined asymmetric channel. The fluid is electrically conducting through a porous medium in the presence of uniform magnetic field. Chemical reaction effect is included in the mathematical model. The systems of governing PDEs are solved analytically. The analytical solution is carried out under long wave length approximation. The solutions are obtained for the primary velocity of the fluid, pressure gradient, temperature and concentration of the fluid. The flow is found in the wave frame of reference moving with a velocity of the wave. The expression for average rise in pressure and frictional force and heat transfer coefficient are calculated by numerical integration and analyzed for various parameters by plotting the graphs and discussed in detail.
