Peristaltic transport in a slip flow

Continuum-mechanic derivation of the entrainment of rarefied gases induced by a surface wave along walls (or peristaltic transport) in a confined parallel-plane microchannel is conducted by the perturbation method. Both no-slip and slip flow cases are investigated with the former ones matched with the previous approach by Fung and Yih. Critical reflux values due to first order slip-flow effects become trivial for the free pumping case, and decrease due to second order slip-flow effects after we compared them with no-slip cases.
