Abstract
In this paper, the authors presented the effects of space voids and electrical conductivity on the flow of a pseudoplastic (Rabinowitsch) fluid analyzed in a curved two-dimensional plane geometry. The walls of the channel are considered to develop the peristaltic waves along its length. The problem is manipulated under the observations of long wavelength and low Reynolds number approximations. The motion is assumed to be steady by transforming it in a wave frame traveling with the speed of wave. Analytical hybrid perturbation techniques have been incorporated to handle the complicated coupled differential equations. It is found that the results are well in agreement with the existing literature as a special case, evocating the validity of the study. Expressions of velocity, pressure gradient, and stream function have been invoked graphically. It is concluded from the results that porous medium and magnetic field suggest opposite variations of velocity and trapping circulating contours are stretching with magnetic field and contracting with increasing voids.
