摘要
In this paper, we examined an incompressible viscous fluid flow and heat transfer in a collapsible tube. The non linear equation arising from the model were solved using perturbation series. An increasing or decreasing in the Prandtl number leads to increasing or decreasing in the rate of heat transfer across the wall.
