Peristaltic transport of Bingham fluid in aChannel with permeable wallsKeywords: Peristaltic transport , Bingham fluid , permeable walls Abstract: Peristaltic transport of a Bingham fluid in a channel with permeable walls is studied under long wavelength and low Reynolds number assumptions. This model can be applied to the blood flow in the sense that erythrocytes region and the plasma regions may be described as plug flow and non-plug flow regions. The effect of yields stress, Darcy number and slip parameter on the pumping characteristics are discussed through graphs.
