Abstract: | The approximate solutions for flow of and Ostwald-de Waele fluid past a sphere at Re·0 = 60 and 1 ? n ? 0·8 are obtained by the use of an extended method of moments. As n decreases, (1) friction drag decreases, (2) pressure drag increases for flow past a blunt body, (3) total drag increases for flow past a sphere, (4) wake length increases for flow past a sphere, (5) separation point moves forward for flow past a sphere. |
