Flow of an Oldroyd 6-constant fluid between intersecting planes, one of which is moving

The problem dealing with the two-dimensional steady and slow now of an Oldr oyd 6-constant fluid between intersecting planes, one of which is fixed and the other moving, has been analysed. Using truncated series expansions giv en by Strauss [4] for the stream function and stress components, the govern ing equations of the problem are reduced to linear ordinary differential eq uations. These equations have been solved analytically subject to the relev ant boundary conditions. The effects of the non-Newtonian parameters on the flow pattern are carefully delineated. There is, unlike the case of Newton ian fluid, a secondary flow near the corner.
