Abstract

We aim to investigate hybrid nanofluid effects on peristaltic motion of MHD nanofluid. Symmetric channel with slip boundary constraints is taken. Mixed convection, Hall parameter and variable viscosity are also taken into account. Energy equation includes dissipation, Ohmic heating and thermal radiation. Dimensionless equations are simplified under the observation of long wavelength approximation. Final forms of equations are solved via numerical approach. Pressure gradient and flow pattern are graphically observed. The comparative analysis of velocity, temperature and heat transport process are evaluated numerically through tabulated values. Temperature field enhances for higher Hartman number while opposite trend is observed for Hall effects. The inclusion of silver nanomaterial in copper nanofluid can more facilitate heat transport characteristics.
