A Study On Free Convective Flow In Non Newtonian Fluids

Abstract

newlineA fluid is anything that flows, usually a liquid or a gas. Fluids are treated as newlinecontinuous media and their motion and state generally specified in terms of the velocity u, newlinepressure p, and density and#961;. Fluid dynamics is one of the most important of all areas of newlinephysics and applied sciences life would not exist without fluids and without the behaviour newlinethat fluids exhibit. Theories of fluid dynamics are too much need in our daily life. The air newlinewe breathe and the water we drink (and which makes up most of our body mass) are fluids. newlineIn the modern era of emphasis on interdisciplinary studies, the more scientific and newlinemathematical aspects of fluid phenomena are becoming increasingly important. Liquids are newlinealways experienced in our day to day life. But all fluids are not having the same physical newlinebehaviours. It is a phase of matter which includes liquids, gases and plasmas. Some of them newlinehave a high rate of flow and some flow very slowly. When they are worked together outside newlinepower, then they show distinctive behaviours. The fluid which has the property of viscosity newlineis called the viscous fluid or real fluid.
