摘要

In this paper, we derive an extension of the Reynolds law for quasi-Newtonian fluid flows through a thin domain with thickness \(0<\varepsilon \ll 1\) 0 < ε 1 with viscosity obeying the Carreau law without high-rate viscosity, by applying asymptotic analysis with respect to \(\varepsilon \) ε . This provides a framework for understanding how the non-Newtonian effects and the thickness of the domain (which is significantly smaller than the other dimensions) influence its flow behavior.
