This work consists the effect of an overlapping constriction of couple stress fluid with nanoparticles. The equations are derived analytically by using HPM technique. Effects of relevant parameters on flow resistance and shear stress at wall of the fluid are investigated. It is observed that flow resistance increases stenosis height and Brownian motion parameter. Flow resistance reduces with local nanoparticle and temperature Grashof numbers, couple stress fluid parameters and thermophoresis parameter.
