Q3/B/ A non-Newtonian fluid that can be described by a power law model for which n is 0.2 and k is 5 (kPa s)^n is to be pumped through a pipe of length 10 m and inside diameter of 20 mm. Determine the radius required for another pipe of 20m in length to carry the fluid at the same rate with the same pressure drop.
