On nonaxisymmetric entry flow at very low Reynolds numbers. (English) Zbl 0767.76080

Summary: The eigensolutions of nonaxisymmetric entry flow of a Newtonian viscous fluid with very small Reynolds number in a semiinfinite rigid circular pipe is obtained. Leading eigenvalues are computed for steady flow and two periodic cases. The result shows that the entry length for nonaxisymmetric flows should be longer than the entry length for axisymmetric flows.
