Abstract
⺠The power-law fluid flow around a rotating cylinder is studied numerically. ⺠Lattice Boltzmann method with multi-relaxation-time collision model is used. ⺠Increasing the rotational speed will decrease drag coefficient. ⺠Increasing the power-law index will increase length and width of the wake. ⺠Vortex shedding pattern disappears beyond a threshold rotational speed.
