The equations of streaming generated by an acoustic mod propagating in a nonlinear dispersive medium (exhibiting absorption and dispersion of phase sound speed) are derived with an arbitrarily shaped incident acoustical field assumed. This field may be periodic or non-periodic. A general dispersion model represented by a convolution operator taking into account relaxation effects was taken into account. Making the assumption of a periodic acoustic field from the general streaming equation. The quasi-stationary flow is driven by a force given by the average value of the dispersion operator with respect to the velocity and acoustic pressure fields. In the spectral representation, it is given by the weighted spectral power density distribution of the acoustic field. The weight of the distribution is the dispersion coefficient - the eigenvalue of the dispersion operator. A new result also reveals the effect of the refractive index deviation on the driving force of streaming. The possibility of generalizing the description of streaming in the simplest case of a non-Newtonian fluid was analyzed. The Reiner-Revlin model of a simple liquid was assumed. It was also noted that the streaming model in the Maxwell liquid is analytically solvable. It was found that asymptotic states of streaming in this model and the Navier-Stokes model are identical. The derivations use new methods different from those used so far. They are based on the separation of nonlinear modes in the momentum transport equation and on the properties of the Gauss-Weierstrass function for the Fick diffusion operator. So far, the method of successive approximations has been used. The consistency of the obtained equations with the assumptions was checked. The obtained formulas generalize the known descriptions of the form of forces driving streaming and extend their application to the case of nonlinear propagation.
