On the influence of wall properties in the MHD peristaltic transport with heat transfer and porous medium

The effect of elasticity of the flexible walls on the MHD peristaltic flow of a Newtonian fluid in a two-dimensional porous channel with heat transfer has been studied under the assumptions of long-wavelength and low-Reynolds number. The analytical solution has been obtained for the stream function, temperature and heat transfer coefficient. The effect of various emerging parameters on the flow characteristics are shown and discussed with the help of graphs. The numerical results show that the trapped bolus increases in size and more trapped bolus appears with increasing permeability parameter, elastic tension and mass characterizing parameters but decreases for large values of Hartmann number.
