Abstract

The sensitivity of the fluid time scale obtained from the Powell-Eyring fluid model to the variations in the zero and infinite shear rate viscosities is investigated. It is concluded that this model is extremely sensitive to the small variations in the zero shear rate viscosity and moderately sensitive to the variations in the infinite shear rate viscosity. Recommended values for these shear rate viscosities are given.
