Abstract

•The main motivation of this work is that we want to see the behavior of nanofluids in peristaltic flows.•In literature few articles are available on this, but no article is available in asymmetric channel on the new fluid model hyperbolic tangent fluid.•So we want to fill the gap in literature studying this.

In the current study, sway of nanofluid on peristaltic transport of a hyperbolic tangent fluid model in the incidence of tending magnetic field has been argued. The governing equations of a nanofluid are first modeled and then simplified under lubrication approach. The coupled nonlinear equations of temperature and nano particle volume fraction are solved analytically using a homotopy perturbation technique. The analytical solution of the stream function and pressure gradient are carried out using perturbation technique. The graphical results of the problem under discussion are also being brought under consideration to see the behavior of various physical parameters.
