The authors show how the Graets-Nusselt problem in heat transfer theory may be extended to non-Newtonian flow. A simple rheological model, " the power law ," is used to obtain a partial differential equation for the temperature profiles, to which a semi-analytical solution may be found. The temperat
## Ah&r&- The accuracy of a formula for calculating velocity gradient at the wag for power-law fluids is investigated by obtaining the exact numerical solution of the boundary-layer equations for Howarth's flow. In general, the formula is found to be quite accurate for the pseudo-plastic cases, n
