This article discusses entropy analysis and mass transfer in the asymmetric peristaltic propulsion of nanofluid under convection and magnetic effects. The mathematical modeling is formulated using the second law of thermodynamics, Williamson fluid model, and appropriate transformations to examine nanofluid behavior in asymmetric conditions. The outcomes provide insights on various parameters affecting entropy, temperature, concentration, and velocity profile, with the use of homotopy perturbation method for solving the differential equations.
The present article deals with entropy analysis and mass transfer process on asymmetric peristaltic propulsion of nanofluid under convection and magnetic effects. The second law of thermodynamics is used to formulate the mathematical modeling. The Williamson fluid model is contemplated to examine nanofluid behavior in asymmetric conditions. The effects of viscous dissipation are also included with thermophoretic and Brownian motion body forces. An appropriate transformation is used to formulate the mathematical modeling, which leads to the resulting nonlinear coupled partial differential equations in the wave frame. To determine the solutions of the formulated differential equations, homotopy perturbation method is used. The significant outcomes are discussed for entropy, temperature, concentration, and, velocity profile in favor of all the leading parameters. The irreversible process is also discussed and calculated with the help of the Bejan number. The present analysis helps to examine the hemodynamics process and is also beneficial in polymer processing.
