Mass transfer to a rotating disk in a non-Newtonian fluid

Abstract
A theoretical relation has been obtained for the mass flux to a rotating disk in a non-Newtonian fluid which includes the convective transport in the radial direction. This result has then been used to obtain improved values for the diffusivities of oxygen in aqueous sodium chloride solutions which were rendered non-Newtonian by addition of Polyox WSR 301.
