Abstract
Electro-osmotic flow of blood is scrutinized within the scope of second grade viscoelastic model. An alternating electric field is exerted across the channel. Porous medium is taken and the porosity factor is studied. The problem is analyzed with the analytical methods and then by the use of software flow pattern is plotted with the variation in Darcy number. The study uncovers that with the increase in Darcy number the flow is accelerated.
