Data on the flow of shear thinning fluids in a rotating cylinder device

The data assembled regarding the flows generated in a device with rotating cylinders is disclosed in the present paper. The device studied consists of two cylinders; the internal cylinder is driven at a constant rotational speed, while the external remains stationary. The study is carried out by num...
