Abstract
In this paper, we investigated the interaction of heat transfer with peristaltic pumping of a Williamson fluid through a porous medium in a planar channel, under the assumptions of low Reynolds number and long wavelength. The flow is investigated in a wave frame of reference moving with velocity of the wave. The perturbation series in the Weissenberg number ( 1 We < ) was used to obtain explicit forms for velocity field, pressure gradient and friction force per one wavelength. The effects of Weissenberg numberWe , Darcy number Da and amplitude ratio φ on the pumping characteristics, friction force and heat transfer are discussed with the help of graphs in detail.
