Starting solutions for a viscoelastic fluid with fractional Burgers’ model in an annular pipe

In this work, we have discussed some simple flows of a viscoelastic fluid with fractional Burgers’ model in an annular pipe. The fractional calculus approach is introduced in the constitutive relationship of a Burgers’ fluid model. Exact analytical solutions are obtained by using Laplace and Weber transforms for two types of flows, namely: Poiseuille flow and Axial Couette flow.
