Derived in this paper is the behavior of the two-dimensional steady flow of a power-law fluid past a circular cylinder at large distances. An approximate far-field solution for a weakly non-Newtonian fluid has been constructed. Some numerical calculations to illustrate the impact of the proposed approximate solution are also included.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
