In this study, "peristaltic transport of hybrid nanofluid" inside a rectangular duct is examined. Water (base fluid) is used with two types of nanoparticles, namely, single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT). The viscous dissipation effect comes out as the prime heat generation source as compared to the conduction of molecules. After using some suitable dimensionless quantities, we obtained the nonlinear partial differential equations in a coupled form which are then solved exactly by the Eigenfunction expansion method. Velocity distribution, pressure gradient, and pressure rise phenomena are also discussed graphically through effective physical parameters. The heat transfer rate is high for the phase flow (single-walled carbon nanotube/water) model as compared to the hybrid (single-walled carbon nanotube + multi-walled carbon nanotube/water) model due to the enhanced thermal conductivity of the hybrid model.
