Magnetohydrodynamic oscillatory flow of a physiological fluid in an irregular channel

The impact of heat source on magnetohydrodynamic oscillatory flow of a chemically reacting viscoelastic fluid in an asymmetric wavy channel is analysed. The governing flow equations are transformed into ODEs by utilizing proper non-dimensional variables. The subsequent ordinary differential equations are solved analytically. The effects of different flow parameters on the fluid flow, thermal and species distributions as well as rate of heat and mass transfer coefficients are examined graphically. It is pointed out that the velocity of fluid is parabolic with extreme value along the channel centreline and minimum at the walls. The magnitude of fluid velocity increases with an increase in porous parameter and high heat transport of a system is due to the presence of oscillatory flow.
