Abstract
The purpose of this investigation is to determine and analyze the fluid inertia of electroosmotic flow on the Cu-water nanofluids by peristaltic transport. Fluid flow properties and heat transfer characteristics are studied for aqueous ionic nanofluids through a vertical microtube of a constant radius. Streamlines are plotted for the governing fluid flow.
