  The article investigates the influences of a variable thermal conductivity and wall slip on a peristaltic motion of Carreau nanofluid. The model is concerned with heat and mass transfer inside asymmetric channel. The blood is considered as the base Carreau non-Newtonian fluid and gold (Au) as nanoparticles stressed upon. The Fronchiener effect of the non-Darcian medium is taken in consideration. The system is stressed upon a strong magnetic field and the Hall currents are completed. The problem is modulated mathematically by a system of non-linear partial differential equations which describe the fluid velocity, temperature and concentration. The system is reformulated under the approximation of long wavelength and low Reynolds number. It is solved on using multi-step differential transform method (Ms-DTM) as a semi-analytical method. A gold nanoparticle has increased the temperature distribution which is of great importance in destroying the cancer cells.

Introduction</title><p>Cancer is a dangerous and deadly to most of its patients. Recent studies have shown that gold nanoparticles (GNP) can cure and overcome it because these particles have high atomic numbers which produce heat and leads to treatment of malignancy tumors. GNP has many properties that are very essential in cancer therapy. They are very small and can penetrate widely throughout a body. They have been considered as major area of research due to their applications in biomedical sciences [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref1">1</xref>] . Huang and El-Sayed [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref2">2</xref>] studied an important optical and photothermal property of gold nanoparticles in different shapes and structures and address some recent applications for cancer imaging, spectroscopic detection and photothermal therapy. The flow of GNP through two coaxial tubes has been investigated by some authors. Hamzehnezhad et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref3">3</xref>] and Hatami et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref4">4</xref>] studied the third-grade non-Newtonian fluid conveying GNP in a porous and hollow vessel by various analytical methods which is essential idea of the present paper.</p><p>The studying is that Darcian and non-Darcian flow in Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluid flow saturating porous medium. This because of their wide applications such as chemical reactors, building non-Darcian fluids in saturated porous media meets a great importance. The Dag insulation, packed bed, enhanced oil recovery, food technology and filtration processes. Eldabe and Abu Zeid [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref5">5</xref>] have studied a non-Darcian Couette flow through a porous medium of magnetohydrodynamic visco-elastic fluid with heat and mass transfer. They found the solutions of velocity, temperature and nanoparticles distribution by using the homotopy perturbation method. The effect of the boundary conditions on a peristaltic flow of a nanofluid in an asymmetric channel embedded with a non-Darcian porous medium was scrutinized by Rathod and Sanjeevkumar [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref6">6</xref>] . Wu et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref7">7</xref>] studied the analysis of multiphase Non-Darcian flow in porous media.</p><p>In the literature, numerous studies regarding peristaltic flow of a Carreau nanofluid have been done for Non-Newtonian fluids. Akbar et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref8">8</xref>] studied the numerical simulation of peristaltic flow of a Carreau nanofluid in an asymmetric channel. They found solutions for the distributions of stream function, pressure rise, and temperature and nanoparticle volume fraction by using the fourth and fifth order Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg. The effects of Nanofluid on peristaltic flow of a Carreau fluid model in an inclined magnetic field are proposed by Akram [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref9">9</xref>] . He found the solutions of the simplified coupled nonlinear equations using an analytical approach. Eldabe et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref10">10</xref>] scrutinized the peristaltic transport of magnetohydrodynamic Carreau nanofluid with heat and mass transfer inside asymmetric channel.</p><p>Peristaltic flow of a nanofluid under the effect of the hall current and porous medium was studied by Nowar [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref11">11</xref>] . Abo-Eldahab et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref12">12</xref>] introduced the hall currents and heat transfer effects on peristaltic transport in a vertical asymmetric channel through a porous medium. Steh and Ghosh [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref13">13</xref>] addressed the combined influence of rotation and Hall current in the presence of a transverse magnetic field, neglecting the induced magnetic field. Ghosh [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref14">14</xref>] discussed the effects of Hall current on an unsteady hydromagnetic flow in a rotating channel permeated by an inclined magnetic field in the presence of an oscillator.</p><p>Several applications in engineering occur at high temperature through variable thermal conductivity. Few such operations include nuclear power plants, in turbines, rockets, space vehicles and pumps operated at high temperatures (see Ref. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref15">15</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref16">16</xref>] ). In addition, studying velocity slip effects are adequate for certain flow problems at the walls of the pipes/channels.</p><p>The governing equations of motion become more complex to handle as supplemental nonlinear terms. So, the exact solutions of such problems are practically impossible, so we turn to find a new method such as the differential transform method (DTM). DTM is semi-analytical methods appear in the equations of motion, because of the flow behavior of Non-Newtonian nanofluids. This method was proposed by Zhou [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref17">17</xref>] , for solving ordinary, partial differential and integral equations. Different applications of DTM can be found in [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref18">18</xref>] . The Ms-DTM method accelerates the convergence of the series solution over large region and yields a series solution, this series will be truncated due to the required accuracy of solutions. This modified technique is verified through illustrative examples of non-chaotic or chaotic systems by Odibat et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.87707-ref19">19</xref>] .</p><p>To the best of our knowledge, the effect of the Hall current, variable thermal conductivity on peristaltic flow of Carreau nanofluid has not been discussed before. Motivated by the above discussions, the aim of the present paper is to examine the MHD peristaltic flow of Carreau nanofluid accompanying heat and mass transfer in the presence of viscous dissipation. In order to clarify the problem at hand, the mathematical modeling is affirmed in Section 2, solutions of the problem on using the multi-steps DTM are presented in Section 3. In Section 4 the influence of the various parameters, the pressure gradient, pressure rise, longitudinal velocity, temperature and concentration are explored through figures and tables. The main findings have been abbreviated in Section 5.</p></sec><sec id="s2"><title>2.

Graphical Results and Discussions</title><p>The solutions acquired by the Ms-DTM are displayed through the following numerical calculation.

It is found that the pressure gradient</p><p>increases with the increase of M , C f and N b . Therefore larger pressure gradient is needed for the motivation the flow through the channel. It is a usual sense. Meanwhile, it decreases by increasing N t . As seen in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2">Figure 2</xref>(e) the pressure gradient decreases in x ∈ [ 0.0 , 0.2989 ] and x ∈ [ 0.544 , 1.0 ] .

Conclusions</title><p>In this investigation, which behavior like a mathematical model describing the heat and mass transfer of blood flow as a Carreau nanofluid with the peristaltic flow conveying gold nanoparticles in an asymmetric channel. The coupled nonlinear governing equations have been modeled and then simplified using long wavelength approximations. The governing equations of motion are analytically solved through Ms-DTM to obtain the distribution of velocity, temperature and concentration. Ms-DTM is applicable to nonlinear models such as Carreau nanofluid models which is more complicated and has a higher degree of non-linearity, in a direct way without using linearization or restrictive assumptions. The main outcomes of the present study are concisely summarized as:</p><p>・ Thermophoresis and Brownian motion parameters have an opposite effects on pressure gradient and pressure rise.</p><p>・ The behavior of Weissenberg and Forchheimer number on velocity profile are too similar.</p><p>・ The behavior of pressure gradient with the increase of local Grash of number appears as the dual role phenomenon.</p><p>・ The gold particles produce the heat which is helpful for treatment of the tumor glands, because it possesses a large atomic number.</p><p>・ Increases in N t and N b cause to increase in the temperature profile.</p><p>・ On the nanoparticles concentration the behavior of increasing in N t and M are similar.</p><p>Excellent agreement are founded between our results and published results by Akbar et al.
