Abstract
Present analysis investigates the peristaltic motion of micropolar fluid in the presence of radial magnetic field. Analysis is arranged when homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions effects are accounted. Heat source/sink and Newtonian heating effects are also considered. Small Reynolds number and large wavelength are employed. Solutions of the resulting coupled equations are constructed. The resulting expressions for pressure gradient, pressure rise, velocity, temperature, concentration and stream function are utilized and discussed graphically. The micropolar and coupling parameters have conflicting impacts on pressure gradient, pressure rise and velocity.
