I finally managed to add Power-Law model to my work.But, for some reason i can only simulate fluids when "n" is between 0.5 and 1.5. if i get out of this range my simulation become unstable. what can be the reason for this behavior?

Thanks in Advance

Mathias J. Krause

In OpenLB, there is a power law model implemented which can be a good starting point for more complex models.
