Low-speed peristaltic transport in a vertical channel subject to the Soret and Dufour effects

Simultaneous effects of heat and mass transfer in peristaltic transport of a viscous fluid are considered. Mathematical modeling is provided in the presence of the Joule heating and the Soret and Dufour effects. The analysis is performed using the long wavelength and low Reynolds number considerations. Perturbation solutions are obtained for a small Brinkman number.
