Abstract The velocity field in the annular region between two eccentric cylinders for a second-order fluid is determined. Second-order velocity terms appear only as a result of the interaction between imposed axial and planar motions. When only one of the two motions is imposed by the boundary conditions, the velocity field coincides with that of a Navier-Stokes fluid. The results of the present study are to be used in a future investigation of the stresses, forces, and torques acting on the walls of the cylinders to enable a rheometer based on the present boundary value problem to be suggested.
