This paper deals with the study of ureteral peristalsis in cylindrical tube through porous medium. In reality, there are solid particles present in the flow, but it is necessary to understand the behaviour of the fluid flow. The flow is analyzed for a single traveling wave in an axisymmetric tube with an incompressible, Newtonian fluid. The wavelength of the traveling wave assumed to be large. Analytical expressions for the stream function, axial velocity, and pressure gradient have been obtained. The effect of various parameters on the flow is discussed with the help of graphs.
