    In this report a comparison is made between the behaviour of a variety of different viscoelastic models when applied to the die swell problem. A wide range of elongational and shear behaviour is exhibited by the models examined. Both types of behaviour are shown to be important in the die swell problem, and the observed swelling is related to these characteristics of the models.
