Abstract: We study the stationary Poiseuille flow in a cylindrical channel of arbitrary cross-section with temperature dependent viscosity and internal dissipation. We assume the flow-rate $ \Phi$ given and the axial pressure gradient $ \mu$ unknown. This leads to a non-local problem. We show the existence in the response diagram, the plane $ (\Phi,\mu)$, of two turning points.
