Abstract
Peristalsis has gained significant attention due to its numerous applications in the medical field, engineering, and manufacturing industries. Therefore, the current work intends to look into the effects of variable liquid properties on the magnetohydrodynamics of peristaltic flow exhibited by viscous fluid through a tapered channel. The viscosity of the liquid differs over the thickness of the channel, and temperature-dependent thermal conductivity is considered. The constitutive relation for energy is formulated with the addition of viscous dissipation and heat generation/absorption. The assumption of velocity slip along with the convective boundary condition energizes the thermal system as well as the flow phenomena. The mathematical formulation is established on the grounds of low Reynolds number and long wavelength approximations. Perturbation solution were obtained for the resulting non-linear differential equations of momentum and energy for small values of variable viscosity and variable thermal conductivity. The effects of various relevant parameters on flow properties were investigated through graphical analysis. The results show that the maximum velocity does not occur in the middle of the tapered channel, but moves toward the upper wall with the increase in the variable viscosity difference between the walls. The application of viscosity is essential in many engineering and industrial processes.
