Steady Flow of Purely Viscous Shear-Thinning Fluids in a 1:3 Planar Gradual Expansion

Laminar flow of non-Newtonian fluid (shear-thinning) through a 1:3 planar gradual expansion is numerically investigated, for various Power-Law index (0.6, 0.8 and 1.0) and expansion angles (15, 30, 45, 60 and 90°) at different generalized Reynolds number (1 ≤ Reg ≤ 400). The study of these parameter...
