Abstract

The present paper deals with the study of mixed convection peristaltic flow of Eyring-Powell Nanofluid with the effect of magnetic field in a non-uniform two dimensional channel. A mathematical modelling is carried out by utilizing long wavelength and low Reynolds number assumptions. Thus peristalsis of Eyring-Powell nanofluid followed through the conservation principles of mass, momentum, energy and concentration has been modelled and Momentum equations involve the combined effects of thermal Grashof number and local nanoparticle Grashof number. The resulting nonlinear system of partial differential equations is solved analytically by employing Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM) and the expressions for velocity, temperature and concentration are determined. The behaviours of Brownian motion parameter (Nb), thermophoresis parameter (Nt) on the non- uniform channel are shown graphically and The effect of various physical parameters on the flow characteristics are shown and discussed with the help of graphs.
