This article is devoted to the mixed convection peristaltic flow of a viscous nanofluid in an asymmetric channel. Mathematical modelling is developed when induced magnetic field and partial slip are present. Mathematical formulation of nanofluid is done through the long wavelength and low Reynolds number approach. The considered flow analysis includes Brownian motion and thermophoretic diffusion. A numerical simulation to the governing resulting problem is made. Particular attention is given to the results for velocity, temperature, concentration, pumping and trapping.
