Abstract

Laminar steady and pulsatile flow in a tube of parallogram cross-section has been derived analytically for incompressible viscous liquid. Velocity profiles have been determined and the influence of various parameters, such as skew angle, side ratio and forced frequency parameter Ωa2/v have been determined. In addition the flow resistance is presented for various side ratios as a function of the skew angle.
