Abstract

This study is concerned with the peristaltic flow of a viscous fluid in a curved channel. Mathematically the problem is governed by two partial differential equations. Closed form solutions of the stream function, axial velocity, and pressure gradient are developed under long wavelength and low Reynolds number assumptions. The influence of curvature is analyzed on various flow quantities of interest.
