Notes:
Heat transfer to polymer solutions or melts flowing in parallel plate systems is an important aspect of polymer processing as for example in extrusion through a wide slit.The present work solves the equation of energy for pseudoplastic non-Newtonian fluids flowing between parallel plates. An exact velocity profile rather than an approximation is used. Equations are derived both for temperature profiles and mean temperatures. The results are shown to correctly represent the physical situation.
