Abstract

The purpose of the present enquiry is to analyse the mechanics of an incompressible fluid, with water as base fluid, through a radially symmetric plumb duct with permeable walls in the presence of magnetic field. The study is an extension of peristaltic stream which has wide industrial applications. Exact solutions have been acquired for the foremost fluid problem. Results are demonstrated graphically and debated concisely.
