An analytical solution for dispersion of a solute in the
peristaltic motion of a couple stress fluid in the presence of magnetic
field with both homogeneous and heterogeneous chemical reactions is
presented. The average effective dispersion coefficient has been found
using Taylors limiting condition and long wavelength approximation.
The effects of various relevant parameters on the average effective
coefficient of dispersion have been studied. The average effective
dispersion coefficient tends to decrease with magnetic field parameter,
homogeneous chemical reaction rate parameter and amplitude ratio
but tends to increase with heterogeneous chemical reaction rate
parameter.
