Abstract

The present investigation is concerned with the problem of heat transfer and peristaltic flow of non-Newtonian fluid using Rabinowitsch fluid model through a channel under long wavelength and low Reynolds number approximation. Expressions for velocity, pressure gradient, pressure rise, friction force and temperature have been obtained. The effect of different parameters on velocity, pressure gradient, pressure rise, streamlines, friction force and temperature have been discussed through graphs.

Keywords- Peristalsis, Uniform channel, Heat transfer, Rabinowitsch fluid model.
