Abstract

The primary aim of the current attempt is to analyze the peristaltic flow of non-Newtonian material in a curved channel subject to two salient features, namely the Soret and Dufour and radial magnetic field. Channel walls are of compliant characteristics. The problem formulations for constitutive equations of Jeffrey fluid are made. The lubrication approach is implemented to simplify the mathematical analysis. Dimensionless problems of stream function, temperature, and concentration are computed numerically. Characteristics of distinct variables on the velocity, temperature, coefficient of heat transfer, and concentration are examined. Besides, the graphical results indicate that the velocity profile enhances the compliant wall parameters significantly, primarily due to the resistance characteristics of Lorentz force velocity profile decays. Furthermore, it is noted that the temperature profile enhances larger Dufour number; however, reverse behavior is noticed in the concentration profile when Soret and Schmidt numbers are increased.
