“…Hence, this work presents the results of a numerical study on the drag and wall effects for a thin circular disk sedimenting broad-face-wise in a long cylindrical tube filled with a power law fluid. However, prior to presenting the new results obtained in this study, it is instructive to review briefly the scant literature available in this field, especially relating to the sedimentation of thin disks and plates in power law liquids, whereas the corresponding body of knowledge for disks falling in Newtonian fluids has been recently summarized elsewhere [16].…”
