摘要
Peristaltic flow genre is rummage-sale to study the flow movement and heat transmission of carbonano tubes in an disproportionate canal in the occurrence of magnetic field. This is the first paper on the peristaltic flow of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in an asymmetric channel. Two kinds of carbon nanotubes, namely, "single-and multi-wall carbon nanotubes" are used with water as base fluids. The pragmatic associations are recycled for the thermo-physical possessions of CNTs in relations of the "solid volume fraction" of CNTs. The prevailing equivalences are abridged using "long wavelength and low Reynolds number approximation." Exact elucidations have been assessed for "velocity, pressure gradient, the solid volume fraction of the CNTs and temperature profile." The possessions of numerous flow limitations, i.e., "Hatmann number M, the solid volume fraction of the nanoparticles phi, Grashof number G and Prandtl number P-r" are presented explicitly for both "single-(SWCNT) and multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT)."
