Fig 5. Local non-Newtonian importance factors, I L.

Fig 5

This non-dimensional parameter is used to illustrate the spatial variation in non-Newtonian behaviour for each blood rheological model. Although the plasma case (a) yielded a constant value of I L, the remaining cases (b-h) showed that the most significant non-Newtonian behaviour occurs in the recirculation zones.
