Abstract
Abstract The effect of shear thinning on the stability of the Taylor–Couette flow is explored for a Carreau–Bird fluid in the narrow‐gap limit. The Galerkin projection method is used to derive a low‐order dynamical system from the conservation of mass and momentum equations. In comparison with the Newtonian system, the present equations include additional non‐linear coupling in the velocity components through the viscosity. It is found that the critical Taylor number, corresponding to the loss of stability of the circular Couette flow, becomes lower as the shear‐thinning effect increases. That is, shear thinning tends to precipitate the onset of Taylor vortex flow, which coincides with the onset of a supercritical bifurcation. Comparison with existing measurements of the effect of shear thinning on the critical Taylor and wave numbers show good agreement. The Taylor vortex cellular structure loses its stability in turn, as the Taylor number reaches a critical value. At this point, an inverse Hopf bifurcation emerges. In contrast to Newtonian flow, the bifurcation diagrams exhibit a turning point that sharpens with shear‐thinning effect. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
