Abstract
Three dimensional laminar, viscid flow is developed for Newtonian fluids which provides absolute values for axial, radial and tangential velocity fields everywhere if the dimensions of the vessel are known and two simultaneous axial velocities e.g. on and off the central axis in the same plane, and the central axis velocity gradient are measured. In addition, normal and shear stresses are determinable. The equation set satisfies gemoetric and other known flow limiting conditions such as no slip at surfaces etc. and are amenable for inclusion in general, dynamic flow expressions. Alternatively they may be used alone for certain problems involving gradients and secondary flows. A range of illustrations are shown for a distorting vessel with elliptic cross-section and small axial taper (analogous to the pulmonary trunk during ejection).
