Abstract
Peristaltic is an inherent property of many syncytial smooth muscle tubes which occurs due to stimulation. A major industrial application of this principle is in the design of roller pumps to eliminate contamination of pumping fluids with the pumping machinery. The lubrication – theory model by Jaffrin & Shapiro et al(1971) is applicable globally for pumping characteristics at a small Reynolds number. Srivastava & Agarwal (1980) modelled the blood as an electrically conducting fluid and investigated the oscillatory flow. Depending on the perturbation solution of Mishra & Ramachandra Rao(2003), we have studied in this paper the Peristaltic transport of a viscous conducting fluid in an asymmetric channel as shown in different physical models. Finally we conclude that the time averaged flow rate increases with the decreasing phase shift.
