Peristaltic flow of Buongiorno model nanofluids within a sinusoidal wall surface used in drug delivery
The current paper deals with the radiative heat transfer of the peristaltic flow of the Buongiorno model nanofluid through a two‐dimensional channel with a sinusoidal wall surface. A particular form of fluid transport occurring through progressive wave of expansion or contraction generating along a distensible tube containing fluid is known as peristaltic pumping, which takes place from the lower pressure region to the higher pressure region. Peristaltic transport finds several applications, such as blood pumping in heart, lung, and pharmacological delivery systems, and industrial applications—sanitary fluid transport, corrosive fluids transport, and so on. An approximate analytical solution is employed for the solution of the system of transformed differential equations with prescribed boundary conditions. The influences of physical parameters characterizing the flow phenomena are obtained and presented via graphs. The result warrants a good correlation with earlier studies in particular case. The following are the main findings: thermophoresis is favorable to enhance the fluid temperature near the channel center and also the axial velocity increases as an increase in the thermal buoyancy parameter. However, the main findings are elaborated in Section 3.
