Electroosmosis-modulated bio-flow of nanofluid through a rectangular peristaltic pump induced by complex traveling wave with zeta potential and heat source.

Electrokinetic micro peristaltic pumps are important biomechanical devices that help in targeted drugging of sick body parts. The current article is written to focus on mathematical modelling and analysis of some important aspect of such flows in a rectangular duct with wall properties. Effects of zeta potential, heat source and deby length are focused. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in the Newtonian base fluid is assumed as drugging material. A comparison of single-walled CNTs (SWCNTs) and multiwalled CNTs (MWCNTs) is also presented. It is considered that the walls are flexible and encapsulating the region with limited permeability. The defined flow problem is modelled and analyzed analytically for the transport of CNT-water nanofluid. It is accepted that the flow is steady, nonturbulent and propagating waves do have a considerably longer wavelength when compared to amplitude. The conditions and assumptions lead to a model of coupled partial differential equations of order two. The exact results by Eigenfunction expansion method are procured and shown accordingly. The predictions about the behaviour of important appearing parameters are displayed for SWCNT and MWCNT -water nanofluid behaviour using figures. The impact of sundry parameters is analyzed. The application of the current study involved transporting/ targeted drug delivery system using Peristaltic micropumps and magnetic field in pharmacological engineering.
