Abstract :

The Present Paper Investigates The Peristaltic Flow Of Visco-elastic Fluid In The Presence Of Heat Source With Wall Properties In A Twodimensional Flexible Channel Under Long Wavelength Approximation. A Perturbation Method Of Solution Is Obtained In Terms Of Wall Slope Parameter And Closed Form Of Expressions Has Been Derived For Stream Function, Temperature And Heat Transfer Coefficient. The Effects Of Elastic Parameters And Pertinent Parameters On The Coefficient Of Heat Transfer Have Been Computed Numerically. It Is Observed That Temperature (θ) Reduces Marginally With Increase In Heat Source Parameter, The Rigidity Of The Wall (E1) And The Stiffness Of The Wall (E2) Of Order 0.2 And Further Increase In E1 And E2 The Depreciation In ‘θ’, With E1 Or E2 Is Appreciably Large. Keywords: Peristaltic Flow, Rivlin–Ericksen Fluid, Wall Properties, Heat Source
