Abstract

This research is concerned with the peristaltic motion of a Johnson-Segalman fluid in an inclined asymmetric channel. The equations for a magnetohydrodynamic fluid in an inclined asymmetric channel are developed. Both the thermal and velocity slip conditions are used. Series solutions for stream function, temperature, pressure gradient and heat transfer coefficients are derived. The solutions are compared with the previous published work. Numerical integration has been performed for pressure rise per wavelength. Graphical results are presented and discussed for some embedded parameters. A comparative study with the existing available results is shown.
