Simultaneous effects of slip and wall properties on MUD peristaltic motion of nanofluid with Joule heating

This paper is devoted to the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) peristaltic transport of nanotluid in a channel with wall properties. Flow analysis is addressed in the presence of viscous dissipation, partial slip and Joule heating effects. Mathematical modelling also includes the salient features of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. Both analytic and numerical solutions are provided. Comparison between the solutions is shown in a very good agreement. Attention is focused to the Brownian motion parameter, thermophoresis parameter, Hartman number. Eckert number and Prandll number. Influences of various parameters on skin friction coefficient, Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are also investigated. It is found that both the temperature and nanoparticles concentration are increasing functions of Brownian motion and Lhermophoresis parameters. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
