Abstract
The problem of the nonrectilinear steady-state flow of a nonlinear viscoelastic liquid in cylindrical channels is considered. It is established that in channels whose cross sections form an equilateral triangle or an isosceles right-angled triangle there are six transverse currents (eddies) in a plane perpendicular to the main longitudinal flow. In cylinders with cross sections in the form of an arbitrary triangle there may be four or six eddies, depending on the shape of the triangle.
