Abstract
Flowβinduced polymer migration is treated in a rather intuitive though mathematically formal way. It is important to incorporate hydrodynamic interaction effects as well as flow geometry effects in studying polymer migration perpendicular to the flow direction. Simple examples, circular Couette flow in the freeβdraining limit and plane Poiseuille flow in the nondraining limit, are chosen to illustrate the importance of such effects.

In this paper, we apply a spectral multilevel method in the nonhomogeneous direction of a channel. The spectral tau method being not well suited to separate the scales, we use a Galerkin basis in the wall normal direction. Then we can separate the scales, as in the periodic case, from the spectral d
