Abstract
This study investigates the peristaltic transport of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Carreau-Yasuda nanofluid through an asymmetric channel. Viscous dissipation, Joule heating and Hall effects are also included in the analysis. Velocity, thermal and concentration slip conditions are considered. The problem is modeled subject to long wavelength and low Reynolds number assumptions. Resulting nonlinear equations are numerically solved. Impact of embedded parameters on the fluid velocity, temperature, concentration of nanoparticles and heat and mass transfer rates at the wall are examined. Graphical results show that an escalation in the strength of appliedmagnetic field and increase in the value of Hall parameter reduce the velocity of nanofluid. Brownian motion and thermophoresis effects increase the temperature of the nanofluid. The present study shows an excellent agreement with the previously available studies in the limiting case.
