In this paper the laminar axisymmetric swirling flow of an incompressible viscous fluid from the entry to the fully developed downstream region in a straight circular pipe of uniform cross‐section has been studied. The swirl has been prescribed at the entry, along with the longitudinal flow. The development of the flow has been divided into three regions and the analysis is based on the method of matched asymptotic expansions.
