Pipe flow problems are important in transportation of wastewater, oil lines and supply of water. In this study, a non-Newtonian fluid model is discussed and a numerical CFD solution is presented for flow geometry. The effects on velocity, pressure, dynamic viscosity and cell Reynolds number are discussed for different parameters of flow inside the pipe. Power Law function is considered in the analyses.
