Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to present some examples of flows in which there are significant differences between the behavior of Newtonian fluids and non-Newtonian fluids. In the figures to follow the Newtonian fluid is indicated with an “N” and the non-Newtonian fluid is marked with “nN”. These examples and some others are discussed in greater details in the book “Dynamics of Polymeric Liquids”, vol 1. Fluid Mechanics, by Bird, Armstrong and Hassager [3].
