Entropy analysis for a novel peristaltic flow in a curved heated endoscope: an application of applied sciences.

Entropy interpretation with a descriptive heat generation analysis is carried out for the heated flow between two homocentric and sinusoidally fluctuating curved tubes. A novel peristaltic endoscope is considered for the first time inside a curved tube with evaluation of heat transfer and entropy. This flexible and novel endoscope with peristaltic locomotion is more efficient for endoscopy of complex mechanical structures and it is more comfortable for patients undergoing the endoscopy of a human organs. A comprehensive mathematical model is developed that also completely evaluates the heat transfer analysis for this novel endoscope. Certain and systematic computations are performed with the help of Mathematica software and exact mathematical as well as graphical solutions are obtained. Entropy has a lower rate that is almost zero entropy in the central region of these two curved tubes, but maximum entropy is noted near the sinusoidally deformable walls of both the endoscope and channel.
