Influence of induced magnetic field and heat flux with the suspension of carbon nanotubes for the peristaltic flow in a permeable channel

Abstract This paper is intended for investigating the effects of heat flux and induced magnetic field for the peristaltic flow of two different nanoparticles with the base fluid water in a symmetric vertical permeable channel. A mathematical formulation is presented. Exact solutions have been evaluated from the resulting equations. The obtained expressions for pressure gradient, pressure rise, temperature, axial magnetic field, current density and velocity are described through graphs for various pertinent parameters. Streamlines are drawn for some physical quantities to discuss the trapping phenomenon.
