Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

By comparing the results of calculation of power-law fluid flow in a slit with the Ellis fluid flow, the inaccuracy of the power-law model is shown as much in describing the velocity profile as in determining the non-Newtonian fluid flow rate. Moreover, the error of the power-law model in the description of temperature distribution in the case of dissipative heating of non-Newtonian fluid over a stabilized segment is shown. The boundary condition of first kind was used.
