Synopsis
The flow of non-Newtonian liquid near a rotating disk has been discussed by using second order stress strain velocity relations of classical hydrodynamics. It is found that the effect of cross-viscosity depends on a non-dimensional number R c. The boundary layer thickness decreases and the dimensionless moment coefficient increases with the increase of R c.
