The current paper aims to utilize non-Newtonian fluid and improve the cooling performance of turbine blades. To implement impinging fluid flow through a porous channel on a hot lower wall, in the first step, the rheology of non-Newtonian behavior is introduced. Then differential quadrature procedure...
