Abstract: This research is concerned with the mixed convection peristaltic flow of nanofluid in an inclined asymmetric channel. The fluid is conducting in the presence of inclined magnetic field. The governing equations are modelled. Mathematical formulation is completed through long wavelength and low Reynolds number approach. Numerical solution to the nonlinear analysis is made by shooting technique. Attention is mainly focused to the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoretic diffusion of nanoparticle. Results for velocity, temperature, concentration, pumping and trapping are obtained and analyzed in detail.
