Abstract
It appears to be difficult to explain the action of oil seals if the fluid is regarded as Newtonian. A possible hypothesis is that the fluid, when subjected to extremely high shear rates, behaves in a non-Newtonian manner. Utilizing a fairly general stress-strain-rate relation, a simplified analysis of the seal problem is given. Comparison with the currently available experimental work shows that non-Newtonian effects are not likely to provide a complete explanation of the oil-seal problem.
