Abstract
The effect of viscous dissipation on heat transfer through nano-fluid in a vertical wavy channel filled with porous media has been studied. The consequential differential equations are simplified by the R-K method of 6th order. The numerical obtained results are shown in the graphs. The significant results of fluid flow and heat transfer rate and its properties are shown graphically. Nusslet values are calculated a for varying the governing parameters φ Da, Gr, ε, Ec and the remaining parameters are to be constants.
