Abstract
The main purpose of this work is to present the use of boundary-domain inte gral method (BDIM) to analyse the Bow behaviour of non-Newtonian fluids. A few available parametric viscosity models are applied representing a non-li near dependence on shear strain rate and shear stress. To evaluate the pres ented approach the Rayleigh-Benard natural convection was solved at differe nt Rayleigh number values. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserv ed.
