Extract

A sequence of high Reynolds number two-dimensional entry flow problems is considered by varying the form of the entry profile from one representing uniform shear to one representing different parts of a Poiseuille profile. The detailed development of the entry flow is illustrated in a few cases. The entry length, pressure drop, and pressure loss in the entry region are given in each case.
