In the present analysis, we have modeled the governing equations of a two dimensional hyperbolic tangent fluid model. Using the assumption of long wavelength and low Reynolds number, the governing equations of hyperbolic tangent fluid for an asymmetric channel have been solved using the regular perturbation method. The expression for pressure rise has been calculated using numerical integrations. At the end, various physical parameters have been shown pictorially. It is found that the narrow part of the channel requires a large pressure gradient, also in the narrow part the pressure gradient decreases with the increase in Weissenberg number We and channel width d.

In the present paper we discuss the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) peristaltic flow of a hyperbolic tangent fluid model in a vertical asymmetric channel under a zero Reynolds number and long wavelength approximation. Exact solution of the temperature equation in the absence of dissipation term has been computed and the analytical expression for stream function and axial pressure gradient are established. The flow is analyzed in a wave frame of reference moving with the velocity of wave. The expression for pressure rise has been computed numerically. The physical features of pertinent parameters are analyzed by plotting graphs and discussed in detail.

SUMMARYIn the present study, we investigated the effects of slip and induced magnetic field on the peristaltic flow of a Jeffrey fluid in an asymmetric channel. The governing two-dimensional equations for momentum, magnetic force function and energy are simplified by using the assumptions of long wavelength and low but finite Reynolds number. The reduced problem has been solved by Adomian decomposition method (ADM) and closed form solutions have been presented. Further, the exact solution of the proposed problem has also been computed and the mathematical comparison shows that both solutions are almost similar. The effects of pertinent parameters on the pressure rise per wavelength are investigated using numerical integration. The expressions for pressure rise, friction force, velocity, temperature, magnetic force function and the stream lines against various physical parameters of interest are shown graphically. Moreover, the behavior of different kinds of wave shape are also discussed.
