Computational analysis of non-isothermal flow of non-Newtonian fluids

The dynamics of complex fluids under various conditions is a model problem in bio-fluidics and in process industries. We investigate a class of such fluids and flows under conditions of heat and/or mass transfer. Experiments have shown that under certain flow conditions, some complex fluids (e.g. wo...
