Viscoelastic fluids play significant roles in many industrial sectors, such as in food and synthetic
polymers industries. The rheological response of viscoelastic fluids is quite complex, including
combination of viscous and elastic effects. In this study, we present simulation results on
viscoelastic fluid, i.e. Oldroyd-B, flows in sudden expansion geometry were applied in two- dimensional Cartesian coordinates. The governing equations intransient and fully developed
regions were solved using OpenFOAM software. The velocity profiles, shear stresses, and first
normal stress differences in some horizontal and vertical sections are illustrated. The simulation
results indicated that the maximum of shear stress and first normal stress difference occurred in
the inlet of channel and the changes of shear stress and first normal stress difference were linear
along the channel length.
