Peristaltic flow of non-Newtonian fluids

By Arshad Riaz

Peristalsis accounts for pumping fluids that deals with the propagation of sinusoidal waves which enforces the food to protrude from mouth to esophagus. Chapter one is based on the brief introduction of peristaltic flows. In Chapter two, the series solutions of magnetohydrodynamic peristaltic flow of Jeffrey fluid in eccentric cylinders are discussed.Chapter three contains mathematical and theoretical analysis of peristaltic flow of Jeffrey fluid in a rectangular duct having compliant walls. Chapter four deals with exact solution for peristaltic flow of Jeffrey fluid in a cross section of three dimensional rectangular duct in the presence of slip at the boundaries.Chapter five is devoted to the study of unsteady peristaltic flow of an incompressible Carreau fluidin eccentric cylinders. In chapter six, heat and mass transfer analysis for peristaltic flow of nanofluid through eccentric cylinders is discussed under the approximations of long wavelength and low Reynolds number. In chapter seven, the study of chapter six is extended by importing the porous medium effects.
