Peristaltic fluid pumping due to a periodically propagating contraction wave in a vessel fitted with one-way elastic valves is investigated numerically. It is concluded that the valve spacing within the vessel relative to the contraction wavelength plays a critical role in providing efficient pumping. When the valve spacing does not match the wavelength, the valves open asynchronously and the volume of the vessel segments bounded by two consecutive valves changes periodically, thereby inducing volumetric fluid pumping. The volumetric pumping leads to higher pumping flowrate and efficiency against an adverse pressure gradient. The optimum pumping occurs when the ratio of valve spacing to contraction wavelength is about . This pumping regime is characterized by a longer period during which the valves are open. The results are useful for further understanding the pumping features of lymphatic system and provide insight into the design of biomimetic pumping devices.
