Abstract

A mathematical model is developed to analyse the peristaltic flow of couple-stress fluid in an inclined asymmetric channel with convective conditions. Soret and Dufour and Hall effects are taken into account. Analysis has been carried out in a wave frame of reference. Expressions for velocity, pressure gradient, temperature and concentration are constructed. Pumping and trapping phenomena are examined. Impact of sundry parameters on the velocity, temperature and concentration is discussed.
