Abstract
In this paper, analysis of post - treatment of wire coating is presented. Coating material satisfies power law fluid model. Exact solutions for the velocity field, volume flow rate and average velocity are obtained. Moreover, the heat transfer results are presented for different cases of linearly varying on the boundaries. The variations of velocity, volume flow rate, radius of coated wire, shear rate and the force on the total wire are presented graphically and discussed.
