RESUMO
Peristaltic flow through an elliptic channel has vital significance in different scientific and engineering applications. The peristaltic flow of Carreau fluid through a duct with an elliptical cross-section is investigated in this work . The proposed problem is defined mathematically in Cartesian coordinates by incorporating no-slip boundary conditions. The mathematical equations are solved in their dimensionless form under the approximation of long wavelength. The solution of the momentum equation is obtained by applying perturbation technique ([Formula: see text] as perturbation parameter) along with a polynomial solution. We introduce a new polynomial of twenty degrees to solve the energy equation. The solutions of mathematical equations are investigated deeply through graphical analysis. It is noted that non-Newtonian effects are dominant along the minor axis. It is found that flow velocity is higher in the channels having a high elliptical cross-section. It is observed from the streamlines that the flow is smooth in the mid-region, but they transform into contours towards the peristaltic moving wall of the elliptic duct.
RESUMO
In this research, the electro-osmotic effects are highlighted for a blood-based hybrid nanofluid flow across an artery infected with multiple stenosis. The artery has permeable walls together with slip boundary effects. The slip and permeable boundary conditions model the more realistic blood flow problems. The governing equations of the problem are converted into non-dimensional form by introducing adequate dimensionless variables and acquired the exact solutions. The detailed study of heat transfer is given by Joule heating and viscous dissipation effects. The disorder of fluid flow is investigated by the mathematical study of entropy generation. Analytically attained solutions are examined graphically for both symmetric and non-symmetric shapes of stenosis. Streamlines are analyzed for varying values of flow rate Q and electro-osmotic parameter m. The flow velocity has smallest values on the axis of channel and gets higher value near the boundary walls. The temperature profile delineates opposite behavior to the velocity, and it is parabolic in nature. The velocity reduces towards the non-uniform stenosis except for electroosmotic parameter m. The temperature has larger magnitude in the case of anti-symmetric stenosis. Moreover, the stability of velocity solution is also analyzed.

In this research, we have considered the convective heat transfer analysis on peristaltic flow of Rabinowitsch fluid through an elliptical cross section duct. The Pseudoplastic and Dilatant characteristics of non-Newtonian fluid flow are analyzed in detail. The Rabinowitsch fluid model shows Pseudoplastic fluid nature for [Formula: see text] and Dilatant fluid behaviour for [Formula: see text] The governing equations are transformed to dimensionless form after substituting pertinent parameters and by applying the long wavelength approximation. The non-dimensional momentum and energy equations are solved analytically to obtain the exact velocity and exact temperature solutions of the flow. A novel polynomial of order six having ten constants is introduced first time in this study to solve the energy equation exactly for Rabinowitsch fluid flow through an elliptic domain. The analytically acquired solutions are studied graphically for the effective analysis of the flow. The flow is found to diminish quickly in the surrounding conduit boundary for Dilatant fluid as compared to the Pseudoplastic fluid. The temperature depicted the opposite nature for Pseudoplastic and Dilatant fluids. The flow is examined to plot the streamlines for both Pseudoplastic and Dilatant fluids by rising the flow rate.
