The present article deals with the peristaltic flow of a Williamson fluid in an asymmetric channel with convected boundary conditions. The relevant equations have been developed. The solution expression for stream function, temperature profile and pressure gradient are derived using regular perturbation method. Numerical integration has been carried out for pressure rise per wavelength. Plots are prepared and analyzed for various embedded parameters involved into the problem.
