摘要
In the present paper, we have investigated the peristaltic flow of nano fluid in a curved channel with compliant walls. The governing equations of nano fluid model for curved channel are derived including the effects of curvature. The highly nonlinear partial differential equations are simplified using the long wave length and low Reynolds number assumptions. The reduced nonlinear partial differential equation is solved analytically with the help of homotopy perturbation method. The physical features of pertinent parameters have been discussed by plotting the graphs of pressure rise, velocity, temperature, nano particle volume fraction and stream functions.
