Abstract

Peristaltic transport of magneto nanofluid in a symmetric channel is numerically discussed. Carreau-Yasuda model is used to explore the shear thickening and shear thinning characteristics. Joule heating and viscous dissipation effects are included in the energy equation. Effects of slip velocity, temperature jump and zero mass flux boundary conditions for channel walls are further considered. Entropy generation and Bejan number are studied. This research has been carried out employing lubrication approximation. Solutions are numerically developed and described.
