=Introduction=
Other fluid mechanics examples have assumed that the fluids in question are Newtonian, but that is not always the case when dealing with real world applications. Many significant fluids exhibit non-Newtonian behaviour with examples including blood, foodstuffs, polymer melts... Newtonian fluids have a linear relationship between viscous stress and shear rate but that is no longer true for non-Newtonian fluids.

Some fluids exhibit increasing or decreasing viscosity with increasing shear rate which is the simplest form of non-Newtonian behaviour that we will tackle in the following sections. Some act as solids at small stress but begin flowing when sufficiently disturbed, while others behaviour depends on the duration of movement and applied stress.

=Model formulation=
Viscous forces are a result of velocity differentials within the fluid and are therefore connected with the velocity gradient. We are interested in the symmetric part that excludes the rotational contributions. Shear rate tensor $\dot{u}$ for incompressible fluids can be expressed as
$$
\dot{u}=\frac{1}{2}\left(\boldsymbol{\nabla} \boldsymbol{v}+(\boldsymbol{\nabla} \boldsymbol{v})^{\top}\right),
$$
where $\boldsymbol{v}$ denotes the fluid velocity. We introduce viscosity $\mu$ through a generalized Newton's law of viscosity with viscous stress tensor $\tau$ expressed as
$$
\tau = \mu \dot{u}.
$$
In general $\mu$ is an arbitrary tensor but usually reduces to a scalar value due to isotropic properties of fluids. Non-Newtonian fluids are fluids where viscosity is a function of shear stress and duration of stress. There are many, often quantitative, models of varying complexities used to describe the viscosity of various non-Newtonian fluids.

We limit ourselves to Ostwald-de Waele power law model
$$
\mu = \mu_0 \left\| \dot{u} \right\| ^{n-1} = \mu_0 \left( 2 \dot{u}{:}\dot{u} \right) ^\frac{n-1}{2},
$$

<figure id="fig:devahl_scheme">
[[File:image.png|thumb|Scheme of the de Vahl Davis benchmark test.]]
</figure>

which is one of the simplest non-Newtonian viscosity models. We introduced two parameters used to fit the model to the experimental data for the fluid in question. Viscosity constant $\mu_0$ used as a scaling factor and non-Newtonian power index $n$ that describes the behaviour. Model with $n < 1$ describes shear-thinning (pseudoplastic), $n = 1$ Newtonian and $n > 1$ shear thickening (dilatant) fluids.

We will focus on shear thinning fluids as their behaviour of reduced viscosity at higher velocity gradients leads towards interesting behaviour with decreasing $n$.

We take a closer look at the behaviour of non-Newtonian fluid in a natural convection driven flow within a square cavity. The convection is driven by differentially heated east and west walls with the north and south walls thermally insulated as is schematically shown in <xr id="fig:devahl_scheme"/>.

This is a common benchmark with existing solutions that we can benchmark our meshless implementation against. Convergence and comparison with benchmark article is shown in <xr id="fig:nonNewtonianConvergence"/> where we plot the changes of average Nusselt number with increasing node density. Nusselt number is a dimensionless number that expresses the ratio between convective and conductive heat transfer. We use the average value on the western wall and define it as
