Abstract

A steady fully-developed laminar flow of power-law fluids through curved pipes has been solved numerically under Dean numbers D l 1000, power-indices n=1∼0.5 and curvature radius ratios Rc=10∼100. Velocity profiles of a primary flow, stream lines of a secondary flow, distributions of wall shear stresses and friction factors are obtained. Effects of D, n and Rc upon flow characteristics are made clear.
