Mathematical modelling of a thin-film flow obeying Carreau's law without high-rate viscosity
Abstract
In this paper, we derive an extension of the Reynolds law for quasi-Newtonian fluid flows through a thin domain with thickness 0< 1 with viscosity obeying the Carreau law without high-rate viscosity, by applying asymptotic analysis with respect to . This provides a framework for understanding how the non-Newtonian effects and the thickness of the domain (which is significantly smaller than the other dimensions) influence its flow behavior.
