Abstract :
The influences of Hall currents and heat transfer on peristaltic transport of a nanofluid in a vertical porous tapered channel through a porous medium are investigated theoretically and graphically under the assumptions of low Reynolds number and long wavelength and the flow investigated is in a wavy frame of reference. Analytical solutions are obtained for temperature, axial velocity, stream function and pressure gradient. Graphical results are sketched for various embedded parameters.
