Heat transfer analysis of Rabinowitsch fluid flow due to metachronal wave of cilia

The present investigation concerns with the mechanical properties of a Rabinowitsch fluid model and the effects of thermal conductivity over it. Flow is considered to be occurring due to metachronal wave produced as a result of constant beating of cilia at the walls of a horizontal circular tube. Th...
