Abstract

In this paper, we investigated the peristaltic flow of a hyperbolic tangent fluid through a porous medium in a two-dimensional channel with the effect of magnetic field under the assumptions of long wavelength and low Reynolds number. The expression for the velocity and axial pressure gradient are obtained by employing perturbation technique. The effects of various pertinent parameters on the axial pressure gradient and time-averaged flow rate are discussed with the aid of graphs.
