The drag on a circular cylinder placed in slow stream of viscous liquid midway between two parallel planes was first obtained in numerical form for a special case by Bairstow, Cave and Lang as early as 1921 on the basis of Stokes' equations of motion. In 1923, Harrison obtained an analytical expression for the drag experienced by the cylinder using a kind of image method. But, no agreement can be found between these two results. In this paper, we treat the same problem based also upon Stokes' equations of motion using image methods which are developed by Faxén in the case of sphere problem. Our result is in good agreement with Harrison's.
