Mixed convection analysis of cilia-driven flow of a Jeffrey fluid in a vertical tube

In this article, effects of cilia-driven flow of a Jeffrey fluid in a vertical tube are discussed. Mixed convection effects are also considered. Jeffrey fluid equations are simplified by the well-known assumptions of small Reynolds number and large wavelength. An exact solution has been managed for the simplified equations. The ciliated motion features are investigated by plots and are discussed in detail. The consequences show that the pumping machinery functions more competently drive forward Jeffrey fluid than Newtonian fluid. The results may help us better understand the transportation of bio-fluids in the human body.
