In continuum mechanics, a power-law fluid, or the Ostwald–de Waele relationship, is a type of generalized Newtonian fluid (time-independent non-Newtonian fluid) for which the shear stress, τ, is given by = where: K is the flow consistency index (SI units Pa·s n),
In one dimension, the constitutive equation of the Herschel-Bulkley model after the yield stress has been reached can be written in the form: [3] [4] ˙ =, < = + ˙, where is the shear stress [Pa], the yield stress [Pa], the consistency index [Pa s], ˙ the shear rate [s], and the flow index [dimensionless].
A single viscosity measurement at a constant speed in a typical viscometer is a measurement of the instrument viscosity of a fluid (not the apparent viscosity). In the case of non-Newtonian fluids, measurement of apparent viscosity without knowledge of the shear rate is of limited value: the measurement cannot be compared to other measurements if the speed and geometry of the two instruments ...
The power-law scheme [1] [2] interpolates the face value of a variable, , using the exact solution to a one-dimensional convection-diffusion equation given below: =In the above equation Diffusion Coefficient, and both the density and velocity remains constant u across the interval of integration.
The distributions of a wide variety of physical, biological, and human-made phenomena approximately follow a power law over a wide range of magnitudes: these include the sizes of craters on the moon and of solar flares, [2] cloud sizes, [3] the foraging pattern of various species, [4] the sizes of activity patterns of neuronal populations, [5] the frequencies of words in most languages ...
In physics and chemistry, a non-Newtonian fluid is a fluid that does not follow Newton's law of viscosity, that is, it has variable viscosity dependent on stress. In particular, the viscosity of non-Newtonian fluids can change when subjected to force. Ketchup, for example, becomes runnier when shaken and is thus a non-Newtonian fluid.
The simplest () is the Harrison–Zeldovich spectrum (named after Edward R. Harrison and Yakov Zeldovich), [2] [3] which characterizes () according to a power law, () =. More advanced primordial spectra include the use of a transfer function which mediates the transition from the universe being radiation dominated to being matter dominated.
