    Non - Newtonian(Shear Thinning) Flow through a circular hose.

    Thank you very much. My overall goal is to be able to calculate the maximum length of hose I can have while still have a flow rate that is high enough to refill a 166cm^3 tank in 15 seconds. Appreciate all your help!

    Non - Newtonian(Shear Thinning) Flow through a circular hose.

    Yes, that was the first post that I looked at. But I am not sure what short hand is being used when writing the pressure drop equation: dP = ((3.n+1)/n)^n * (Q/pi/r^3)^n * (2.L.K/r) i.e. what do the periods represent? And is the flow rate(Q) just a generalized flow rate along the course of...

    Non - Newtonian(Shear Thinning) Flow through a circular hose.

    Thanks for your help! One more thing, do you by any chance have the equation, Latexman? I read some of your earlier comments on a thread similar to this where the guy asking the question wanted to calculate pressure drop. I had some trouble deciphering that equation. Could you help me with...

    Non - Newtonian(Shear Thinning) Flow through a circular hose.

    Let me start off by saying this is my first post so please let me know if I am doing anything wrong! I am dealing with psuedoplastic non - newtonian fluids that are flowing through a circular pipe. I am looking to calculate the flow rate at one end of the pipe and the information that I...
