Abstract

In this article, we studied the peristaltic motion of Jeffrey fluid with porous medium through an asymmetric channel under the influence of velocity slip parameters. Governing equations for non-Newtonian fluid flow models such as continuity, momentum, energy and mass transfer equations are formulated. Externally applied inclined magnetic field is also considered in the flow pattern. The lengthy governing equation of fluid motion is reduced by taking into the account of approximation of longer wavelengths and smaller Reynolds numbers The resulting governing equations are solved exactly. The graph shows the results of the impact of various related fluid parameters such as Hartmann number, Darcy number, Jeffrey fluid parameter, amplitude ratio, chemical reactions of fluid velocity, temperature, concentration, pressure rise, pressure gradient, streamlines etc. Finally, the various waveforms of the trapping phenomenon are presented.
