The present article deals with the peristaltic flow of a Sisko nanofluid in an asymmetric channel. Here the governing flow equations for nano Sisko fluid are formulated in Cartesian coordinates system. The flow analysis is developed in a wave frame of reference moving with velocity of the wave c. The fourth- and fifth-order Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method is used to calculate the numerical solutions of simplified coupled nonlinear equations and find the expressions of velocity, stream function, pressure rise, temperature and nanoparticle phenomena graphically. Numerical solutions are also presented in tabulated form.
