Abstract :
This article deals with the influence of heat transfer and nanofluid on the peristaltic flow of a third order fluid. Numerical solutions are evaluated for temperature, nanofluid phenomenon, streamlines and pressure rise. Graphical illustrations investigate the influence of various embedded parameters. It is seen that with high buoyancy forces and Stress relaxation time velocity profile decreases.
