Notes:
Birefringent studies have been carried out on a viscoelastic fluid (polystyrene in Aroclor) flowing in straight, converging, and diverging channels, for the purpose of obtaining point-by-point stress data (the shear stress and the difference in normal stresses). A preliminary analysis in terms of the Coleman-Noll second order theory for viscoelastic fluids shows good agreement.
