A numerical method employing physical components of the tensorial quantity as dependent variables on boundary-fitted curvilinear grids is applied to the simulation of flow in arbitrary cross-section curved pipes for an imposed pressure gradient of oscillatory nature. The basic equations are formulated for Stokes fluid. The computation for a Newtonian incompressible fluid in curved concentric annuli and curved eccentric annuli was carried out for the range 10^3 ≤ De ≤ 10^5, 1 ≤ Wo ≤ 10^2, where De is the Dean number and Wo is the Womersley number. It is found that, at very low or very high Womersley number, the amplitude of the wall shear stresses derived numerically is in good agreement with that of the zero-th order of the asymptotic expansions of the solution of concentric annuli as the curvature parameter δ tends to zero, and that 2 pairs of secondary flow appear for even low Womersley number, contrary to the case of the circular coiled tubes.
