Peristaltic transport of Jeffrey Fluid in a Doubly Connected Region

Abstract

A porous vertical annulus subjected to a peristaltic wave motion on the outer wall is considered.
Heat transfer in Jeffrey fluid flowing in an annular region is considered. A wave frame of reference is
assumed here. The governing equations are subjected to long wavelength approximation and low Reynold’s
flow. The velocity and pressure gradient are evaluated by applying regular perturbation. The friction at the
wall and pressure rise are numerically evaluated and graphically depicted. As  →0 , the solution reduces
to Newtonian fluid.
