Abstract: In ref. [1], Lin obtained an approximate analytical solution of the ideal potential flow around a circular cylinder between two parallel flat flates.In this paper, the author shows that one may obtain the result coinciding with that obtained in ref. [1] by making use of the Shvez's method[2]. Morever, we can obtain a more accurate result than that obtained in ref. [1], if we make use of the improved Shvez's method,sup>[2]. Some calculating examples are presented.
