Abstract

The aim of the present attempt is hall currents and joule heating on peristaltic blood flow in porous medium through a vertical tapered asymmetric channel under the influence of radiation. The Mathematical modeling is investigated by utilizing long wavelength and low Reynolds number assumptions. The indicates an appreciable increase in the axial velocity distribution with increase in hall current parameter and porosity parameter whereas the result in axial velocity distribution diminished by increase in magnetic field parameter. The result in pressure gradient reduces by rise in hall current parameter, porosity parameter and volumetric flow rate. The temperature of the fluid increases by increase in M, N, Pr and Br and decreases by increase in m and Da.
