Abstract
The present investigation aims to examine peristalsis in a symmetric channel having flexible walls. Sisko nanofluid is considered for the investigation. Joule heating and nonlinear thermal radiation are taken. Boundary conditions are subject to the slip conditions for velocity, temperature and concentration. Entropy generation analysis for viscous dissipation, Joule heating and nonlinear thermal radiation is carried out. System is numerically computed through NDSolve of Mathematica. Graphical analysis is made for velocity, temperature, concentration, heat transfer coefficient and entropy generation. Conclusions are drawn through discussion. This study discloses that magnetic field leads to slow down the fluid velocity and causes decay in heat transfer coefficient. Further, Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameter caused enhancement in temperature and entropy generation rate. Slip parameters for velocity and temperature lead to enhancement in the velocity and temperature, whereas opposite impact is observed for concentration via corresponding slip parameter.
