Abstract
We present a rare exact solution of the Navier–Stokes equations for the Hagen–Poiseuille flow through a quarter-elliptic tube. Utilizing the separation of variables method, we derive the solution and report expressions for both the volumetric flow rate and the friction factor–Reynolds number product.
