Abstract
Peristaltic activity of Powell-Eyring nanomaterial through flexible channel is reported in this paper. Magnetic field is considered to control the drug delivery process. Dissipation and Joule heating effects are taken in energy equation. Modified Darcy law addresses porous medium. Further zero mass flux and slip constraints at the walls are taken into account. Brownian motion and thermophoresis effects explain the nanomaterial characteristics. Non-dimensional expressions are further simplified in view of large wavelength assumptions. Numerical approach are used to solve simplified form of equations. Temperature, pressure gradient, concentration and velocity are analyzed. Temperature increases for larger Hartman number however opposite situation is observed for Hall parameter.
