Heat transfer efficiency of non-Newtonian fluids in a complex channel - Numerical applications

In this work, a numerical study is carried out using CFD code to investigate a steady laminar flow of non-Newtonian power-law fluids in two geometries: complex geometry, called C-shaped, and straight channel. C-shaped geometry is a three-dimensional mini-channel of square cross-section. The chaotic flows created in this geometry enhance considerably the flow field, heat transfer and thermodynamic performances.
