Effect of magnetic field on the peristaltic transport of Oldroyd-B fluid in an asymmetric inclined channel

Abstract

Abstract In this manuscript, we have investigated the peristaltic transport of Oldroyd-B fluid in an inclined channel. The channels are taken asymmetric into the account and subjected to rotation of the presence of a magnetic field and gravity field. The governing equations of Oldroyd-B fluid are derived and the constitute nonlinear equations are reduced under the consideration of large wave length and small Reynolds number approximation. The exact solution of the equations is derived. The consequences of pertinent aspects of axial velocity, pressure gradient, pressure rise and stream functions are discussed through the graphs.
