Abstract

In the recent couple of decades, a momentous curiosity has been established in reviewing a peristaltic transport due to its noteworthy utilizations in biomathematics, biomedical engineering and biosciences. Peristaltic phenomenon is a significant mechanism of peristaltic pumps and physiological phenomenon. With the development of clinical and medical sciences, it has been demonstrated that the physiological materials don't act like Newtonian materials. Thus, in order to comprehend the salient characteristics of physiological materials (fluids) during peristalsis, the choice of suitable fluid model is important. In the present research letter, effects of heat and mass transport is addressed in flow of Ellis fluid nanofluid via asymmetric channel. The nonlinear radiative effects are imposed to studying the heat transfer transport. Features of activation energy is considered in the modeling of concentration equation. The governing expressions of proposed model is followed under the assumptions of small Reynolds number hypothesis and long wavelength. To investigate the salient characteristics of flow features and heat and mass transport, analytical solutions have been obtained for the velocity, temperature, pressure gradient and concentration. The obtained outcomes is presented through graphically and discussed in details physically. Furthermore, streamlines is sketched for different parameters. The current theoretical attempt discloses various motivating performance that warrant further investigation on different Newtonian as well as non-Newtonian materials. It is observed from the current flow analysis that the impact of slip factor highlights reverse behavior on the channel wall whereas the impact of Prandtl and Schmidt number respectively on the temperature and concentration equations have a decreasing and increasing trend.
