## Abstract **Summary:** Non‐Newtonian fluid behavior has significant influence on quantities in chemical engineering like power input, mixing time, heat transfer etc. In the laminar flow region, the concept of effective viscosity by Metzner and Otto is well established. In the transition region be
## Abstract Ryan and Johnson's treatment of the transition from laminar to turbulent flow is extended to include the heated flow of pseudoplastic liquids in smooth tubes. A limitation is pointed out for the case of Bingham plastic fluids. The theoretical results of the present investigation are co
The equation of motion has been solved for steady axial, laminar, isothermal flow of an Ellis model fluid in a conduit of annular cross section. Tables are presented which may be used to obtain flow curves for annular flow of fluids whose Ellis parameters are known. The Ellis fluid predictions are c
