1. Introduction
The transport of fluid in a channel or tube due to contraction and relaxation of flexible walls are known as peristalsis. It can be observed naturally in the human body for the transport of food, some blood vessels, movement of spermatozoa and ovum in reproductive track, and many other body systems. Phenomena inspired scientists and leads to many biomedical instruments and other transport techniques in machines such as a heart-lung machine and PDMS peristaltic micropump [1, 2]. Other than biomedical devices, it can be employed in devices such as sanitary transport.
Latham [3] experimentally elaborated the phenomena, leading to numerous investigations [4–8] allocated in the domain of peristaltic flow for different flow geometries and under various assumptions. Jaffrin and Shapiro [9] initiated the study of peristaltic transport with low Reynold’s number approximation. Most recently, Zeeshan et al. [10] investigated the rheological features of nanofluid in a rectangular duct driven by a complex peristaltic wave. The effect of electrophoresis was focused and the analytic solution is found. They revealed that the change in amplitude ratios of complex waves affects the flow positively, that is, more bolus are observed. Tripathi et al. [11] theoretically studied the transport phenomena of a nanofluid due to complex peristaltic transportation with effects of electro-osmosis. The analysis focuses on nanofluids, and they observe the effects of the rise in Joule’s heating, thermophoresis, Brownian motion, Grashoff number, etc. Javid et al. [12] described the peristaltic propulsion of viscous fluid in a channel with a complex wave. They used numerical simulations to evaluate the results. The evaluation further focused on magnetohydrodynamics which enhances the worth of study. Furthermore, Tripathi et al. [13] added electrodynamical effects with a couple stress fluids in ocular flow. Bhatti et al. [14] argued two-phase flow in a channel with a compliant wall.
Usually, in biological systems, such as the ureter, oesophagus, or small veins, it became apparent that the walls are lubricated with a film of fluid. These fluids may be different in nature rheologically and continuously pumped out. Recently, some researchers [15, 16] have shown experimentally that the blood flux in tiny veins has an outer stratum made of plasma (which is usually Newtonian fluid), whereas an inner stratum called core possesses red blood (usually modelled as non-Newtonian fluid). The fluid rheologies may vary in different transport ducts of the human body. The study motivated some recent literature in physiological flow two-layer immiscible fluids’ flow analysis.
Maybe, the first mathematical analysis in this domain was performed by Srivastava and Srivastava [17] back in 1982. They considered both Newtonian fluids with different viscosities and compared the results with experimental results of Weinberg et al. [18].
Misra and Pandey [19] then use the model for the transport of blood in small blood vessels. They use the Casson model for core region flow and Newtonian fluid close to the wall. They concluded the denser the peripheral fluid is, the higher the flow rate of the core region is.
More recently, Vajravelu and Saravana [20] examined the two-layered fluid model with non-Newtonian Jeffery fluid in the core region, and Newtonian fluid is taken close to walls in a channel with heat transfer and fluid slip effects. Ali et al. [21] worked on peristaltic transport in an axisymmetric tube with FENE-P fluid in the core region. They focused on electro-osmosis effects. Again, Ali et al. [22] reported similar flow with Ellis fluid in the core region. Rajashekhar et al. [23] assumed the Herschel–Bulkley model for the flow in the core region of so-called blood flow. Tripathi et al. [11] worked on Bingham and power-law fluid in a channel. The results are extended for three-layer fluids by Tripathi et al. [24] and were reported in 2017.
Mathematical simulations of many biologically inspired systems are developed and produced effect outputs in finding the cure or histories of many biologically inspired systems. Since decades, these models and simulation are vital in reducing animal experimentation [25–29]. So, major contributions of the current work can be overviewed as
(i) This article endures some novel applications of the flow of two-layer fluid in a flexible tube.
(ii) The complex peristaltic wave travels along the surface of the tube. As described by Dobrolyubov and Douchy [30] that the geometric form of a peristaltic wave in the intestine is complex most of the time, therefore, this study is an effort to describe flow as close to the real physiological problem as possible.
(iii) The two-layer flow of nanofluid and Johnson–Segalman fluid in the flexible tube with a compliant wall is evaluated analytically along with the effects of the partial porous medium and catheter.
The creeping flow and long-wavelength approximation are assumed and perturbation is employed to evaluate the solution. Structure of the investigation is arranged as follows. Section 2 discusses the mathematical modelling of the whole phenomenon through geometrical description and derivations of the quantitative expressions from main physical laws. Section 3 suggests the methodology of the solution to handle the obtained systems of equations. In Section 4, results are revealed in the form of graphs and tables and discussed with profound depth. Lastly, a few significant conclusions are drawn from the recent investigation and are furnished in Section 5.
2. Theory and Mathematical Model
2.1. Geometry of the Problem
An infinitely long circular axisymmetric co-centric cylinder, as illustrated in Figure 1, is the area of interest in current communication. Furthermore, a complex sinusoidal wave travels along
[figure omitted; refer to PDF]
Mathematically inner cylinder can be represented as
Here, z designates the direction of propagation of the wave, i.e., parallel to the z-axis. The outer cylinder is kept at a temperature
2.2. Porous Media
A porous medium is a space defined by solid with void space uniformly distributed in the whole region, which allows fluid to transport but with some resistive force called Darcy’s forces. These mediums help to uphold the heat in porous systems. The application and usage of porous media in engineering can be underlined in various fields such as petroleum engineering, rock and soil mechanics, hydrogeology, and, more recently, in bioengineering and biology. Many scientists have established their interest in considering heat transfer biologically inspired flow in permeable domains [31–35].
The basic feature of the porous medium is porosity which can be defined as the ratio of the volume of free space to the volume of the full body. Usually, the value of porosity is 0.45, with dense materials and compact structure; it reduces to 0.25 and so.
The velocity V of fluid flow hinges on permeability and pressure gradient as defined by the modified Darcy equation:
Here, the coefficient α defines loss due to friction generated by the viscosity of fluid and shape of a porous medium. The inertial parameter β incorporates loss in inertial due to bend in porous spaces and other factors; it is proportional to ρV2.
The modified Darcy equation is universal relation and defines fluid flow in porous spaces.
At a low Reynolds number, the inertial term in equation (1) can be neglected and becomes
Here, K = 1/α is known as the Darcy permeability.
2.3. Nanofluids
A solid-liquid suspension is engineered in such a way that nanosized particles are uniformly distributed and do not agglomerate in a base fluid. These nanosized particles are usually oxides and carbides of metal or carbon nanotubes. Base fluid can be any liquid that is oils or water with low thermal conductivity. These fluids exhibit enhanced thermal conductivity which makes it imperative to gain knowledge of the rheology of nanofluid before its usage. Application of these fluids is in solar energy storage, microelectronics, fuel cells, pharmaceutical process, hybrid engines, chillers, and other machines related to heat transfer. Nanofluids also show special properties with the magnetic field, acoustics and ultrasound, etc. [36–40].
Mathematical models of this fluid was described by Buongiorno [41]. He observed an abnormal increase in thermal conductivity, viscosity, and heat transfer rate coefficient. It is due to the nanofluid property of the thermophoresis and Brownian motion.
If J is diffusion mass flux of the nanoparticle w.r.t. fluid velocity, then it can be written as the sum of Brownian motion and thermophoresis; if no external force is applied,
Neglecting radiative heat transfer, q can be calculated as the conduction heat flux, c is heat capacity, and hp is specific enthalpy.
2.4. Constitutive Equation of Johnson–Segalman Fluid
The Johnson–Segalman fluid [42] defines nonmonotonically related shear stress and rate of shear for some values of the parameter of material. Spurt is an example of the property of this model.
Johnson and Segalman initially suggested an integral approach to the model, but rate type form can be derived. Considering appropriate parameters, the mathematical form of Johnson Segalman fluid [43] can be written as
Here,
(a)
(b)
(c)
2.5. Flow Problem
Modelling of flow in fluid transport problems usually involves four equations each, i.e.,
(i) Continuity equation as a consequence of the law of conservation of mass
(ii) Momentum equation due to law of conservation of momentum
(iii) Energy equation as defined by the law of conservation of energy
(iv) Nanoparticle concentration equation
In current communication, these equations are divided into two regions so-called core and the peripheral region. The core region is saturated with Johnson–Segalman fluid and the porous peripheral region is filled with a nanofluid.
2.5.1. Peripheral Region
2.5.2. Core Region
Using the dimensionless parameters,
Employing nondimensional variables in equations (11)–(19) and using long wavelength and low Reynolds number approximation, the equations for peripheral and core region become as follows.
2.5.3. Peripheral Region in Dimensionless Form
2.5.4. Core Region in Dimensionless Form
2.5.5. Boundary Conditions
In addition to these constraints, we are also imposing the condition of compliant walls [14, 44, 45] on the outer surface which is defined as the continuity of stress at
By taking the Wissenburg number very small, i.e.,
3. Solution Method
Mathematical modelling of the whole problem discussed above suggests that the two systems (peripheral and core regions) of coupled equations (21)–(27) are to be solved along with the coupled boundary limitations defined in equation (25). The system of the core region has been solved by an exact method, and the results are elaborated underneath:
On the contrary, the system of the peripheral region cannot be solved exactly, so we adopted the scheme of perturbation (HPM) [46–48] in which the same linear operator is chosen for velocity, heat, and energy functions, i.e.,
4. Results and Discussion
This section involves some graphical discussion based on the theoretical data achieved in the preceding section where we have collected analytical readings of observable sections of the study along with the compliant walls’ phenomenon. To deal with this, we have captured some graphs of obtained analytical statistics of velocity, temperature, nanoparticles’ fraction, and stream functions. Figures 2–8 reflect the sketches for the velocity field, Figures 9–13 for temperature, Figures 13–19 for nanoparticles, and Figures 20–23 for streamlines. Above mentioned graphs contain the behaviour of said profiles for both the peripheral and core regions. From these plots, we imagine that how a quantity varies against the including factor theoretically, and its matching with the physical aspects are also being stated.

Figure 2 contemplates the impact of the viscosity ratio parameter
4.2. Thermal Exchange
Figure 9 implies the variation of temperature distribution profile
4.3. Nanoparticles’ Phenomenon
As in the modelling section, we have considered the nanoparticles’ phenomenon only in the core region, so we will here discuss the behaviour of nanoparticles’ distribution only in the peripheral region. Figure 14 discloses the effects of Brinkman number
4.4. Streamlines’ Discussion
Streamlines have been unveiled to discuss the flow sketches under the effects of some considerable features of the study. In Figure 21, the circulating bolus mechanism has been included for the factor
5. Concluding Remarks
Currently, we have discovered the theoretical analysis of the bi-layered flow of Johnson–Segalman/nanofluid with peristaltic phenomenon through an infinitely long circular axis-symmetric co-centric cylinder having flexible outer walls under the constraints of long wavelength and low Reynolds number. The flow has been observed in two layers, namely, peripheral and core regions. The unknown quantities of the core region have been achieved by exact solutions, but the peripheral region has been tackled by HPM. The developed analytic solutions have been sketched on Mathematica and discussed descriptively. From the above whole study, we collected the following important points:
(i) The velocity is an increasing function of fluid viscosity
(ii) It is finalized that compliant walls are executing the same sort of effect on the flow characteristics in both the peripheral and core portions, and overall, the flow speeds up due to walls’ compliance.
(iii) It should be added that velocity is enhanced due to the large intensity of Brinkman number and Grashof number which is not in the case of wall’s porosity effects.
(iv) It can be stated that the Brinkman number increases the rate of thermal transfer in both the regions.
(v) It can also be placed here that the heat transfer rate is decreasing with increasing fluid viscosity
(vi) It is found that nanoparticles’ distribution goes backwards due to compliant walls, fluid’s viscosity, Brinkman number, and thermophoresis factor but moves forward by the Brownian diffusion.
(vii) Due to the large mass per unit area of the compliant walls, the circulating contours are squeezed.

Abstract
Biologically inspired micropumps using the phenomena of peristalsis are highly involved in targeted drugging in pharmacological engineering. This study analyzed theoretically the transport of two immiscible fluids in a long flexible tube. The core region contains Johnson–Segalman non-Newtonian fluid, while the peripheral region is saturated by nanofluid. It is assumed that Darcy’s porous medium is encountered close to the walls of the tube. A complex peristaltic wave is transmitted on the compliant wall which induces the flow. Equations of continuity, momentum, energy, and nanoparticle concentration are used in modelling the problem. The modelled problem for both the regions, i.e., core and peripheral regions are developed with the assumptions of long wavelength and creeping flow. Temperature, velocity, and shear stress at the interface are assumed to be equal. The system of equations is solved analytically. The graphical results for different involving parameters are displayed and thoroughly discussed. It is received that the heat transfer goes inverse with fluid viscosity in the peripheral region, but opposite measurements are obtained in the core region. This theoretical model may be considerable in some medical mechanisms such as targeted drug delivery, differential diagnosis, and hyperthermia. Moreover, no study on non-Newtonian nanofluid is reported yet for the two-layered flow system, so this study will give a good addition in the literature of biomedical research.
