During a pilot test, a Non-Newtonian fluid flows in a horizontal 37mm ID pipe. The pressure drop per length is measured to be 917Pa/m and it is experimentally determined that the Shear stress ( )[Pa] and Shear rate ()[s1] are related by the following equation: Shear rate vs shear stress plot Estimate the average linear velocity (m/s), volumetric flow rate (m3/s) and the pressure drop per length for the same experimental fluid when flowing in an industrial scale pipe of 180mm D with the same wall shear stress
