An implicit finite difference scheme is used for determining the laminar flow in the hydrodynamic entrance region of concentric annular ducts. The results for velocity distribution, pressure drop and entrance length are presented for a wide range of annulus radius ratiosγ=a/b;aandbbeing the radii of inner and outer walls of the annulus. It is found that while results forγ= 0.8 are similar to those for a parallel plate channel (γ= 1.0), those forγ= 0.001 depart significantly from those for a circular pipe (γ= 0). The results also compare well with those reported by Sparrow and Lin [1] using the linearization method. Computationally the present method is about two orders of magnitude faster than that of Sparrow and Lin.
