Abstract

Influence of compliant wall properties and heat transfer on the peristaltic flow of an incompressible viscous fluid in a curved channel is discussed. Long wavelength and low Reynolds number approach has been employed and the expressions of stream function, velocity and temperature profiles are derived. The variations of various interesting parameters are shown and examined very carefully.
