Abstract

This study is devoted to a numerical modeling of a transient pseudo plastic fluid flow in an elastic pipe. The set partial equations for both the fluid are derived from the law conservations of mass, momentum and energy for the fluid and Hooke’s law for the wall pipe. The system governing this problem is presented and then solved numerically. The non-Newtonian character behavior of the fluid s modeled by the power law. The coupled method of characteristics, finite differences and Runge Kutta are used for spatial and temporal discretization respec-tively. Some results obtained are in good agreement with those found in the literature.
