Vajravelu et al, 007; Radhakrishnamacharya and Srinivasulu, 007; Srinivas, Kothandapani, 008; vasudev et al, 00) However, the flow of a Jeffrey fluid through a porous medium in an inclined asymmetric channel with peristalsis has received diminutive attention Hence, an attempt is made to study the peristaltic flow of a Jeffrey fluid through a porous medium in an inclined asymmetric channel under the assumptions of long wavelength The expressions for the velocity and pressure gradient are obtained analytically The effects of various pertinent parameters on the pumping characteristics and temperature field are studied in detail with the aid of graphs MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION We consider the flow of an incompressible Jeffrey fluid through a porous medium in an inclined asymmetric channel induced by sinusoidal wave trains propagating with constant speed c along the channel walls The channel walls are inclined at an angle to the horizontal The lower and upper walls of the channel are maintained at constant temperatures T and T 0, respectively Figure- shows the schematic diagram of the problem 96
