Abstract
The inlet lengths in a straight channel and a circular tube by the laminar flow of an elastico-viscous liquid have been determined in this paper. Expressions for the inlet lengths have been obtained by the kinetic energy end correction method. For a given pressure drop, the elasticity of the liquid increases the inlet length only if the liquid possesses cross-viscosity. But cross-viscosity which decreases the inlet length has an independent effect on it.
