The resulting nonlinear implicit system of partial differential equations is solved analytically with the help of the perturbation method. The expressions for shear stress, velocity, temperature, concentration, flow rate, wall shear stress, and longitudinal impedance are obtained. The physical behavior of different parameters have also been presented graphically. Trapping phenomena have been discussed at the end of the article.
