This model stimulate the investigation of SWCNT on peristaltic transport of nanofluid in an inclined tube with permeable walls. Here blood is considered as the base fluid. The flow problem is modeled in the wave frame of reference. Low Reynolds number and long wavelength approximations are utilized. The traveling wave front of peristaltic flow is chosen sinusoidal (extension/reduction). Resulting equations for temperature profile, velocity and pressure gradient are solved exactly by using the symmetry boundary conditions. The nature of fluid flow for blood based SWCNT is examined and presented by constructing the graphs of temperature, velocity, pressure rise, pressure gradient and streamlines. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.
