Abstract

We investigate the influence of an induced magnetic field on the peristaltic flow of an incompressible fourth grade fluid in a symmetric channel with heat transfer. Adopting long wavelength, low Reynolds number and small Deborah number assumptions we derive the solutions for stream function, pressure gradient, temperature, magnetic force function, induced magnetic field and current density. Qualitative agreement is demonstrated between the graphs and expected observations.
