Abstract
Peristaltic pumping is investigated, generated by means of an infinite train of waves travelling along the wall of a cylindrical tube. The theory is based on the general second order integral constitutive equation for viscoelastic (simple) liquids. Analytical and closed form solutions are presented for the first order and the stationary part of the second order flow field approximations with respect to the amplitude ratio. It turns out that the zero—shear viscosity η 0 and the complex viscosity η*(ω) are the only relevant fluid properties.
