How to consider non-newtonian fluid

yamayama

Hello,

I understand that the current version only treats Newtonian fluid. Is it easy to add a function to the code to consider non-newtonian fluid(non-linear relationship) ?

Best regards

I also wonder how can I using this code to treat non-newtonian fluid? Since I know the viscosity is set and a constant in the XML file, How can I do If I want to treat a fluid with a varying viscosity ?

Hi,

We are in the process of releasing a non-Newtonian formulation soon.
Right now, without modifying the code you can only use Newtonian behaviour.

Thanks,

Hi，George,
If I want to simulate non_Newtonian flows, Can you give me some suggestion about how to modify the code?
Thanks a lot!
