Notes:
A semiempirical analysis of the turbulent flow of dilute polymer solutions through an annulus between two coaxial tubes is presented. This analysis is based upon the assumption that the velocity profile is logarithmic in the turbulent region. The thickness of the laminar boundary sublayer is changed by adding polymers to the solvent; this change is different at each wall of the annulus. A series of experiments was conducted in an annular system. The experimental results fit the theoretical predictions quite well.
