A model is developed to calculate fluid flow in Newtonian and non-Newtonian systems subjected to rotational electromagnetic stirring. In the former case, transport equations for K, the turbulence energy, and ε, its rate of dissipation, were used to deduce the effective viscosity, while in the latter case, constitutiv relations were used to relate the shear stress to the rate of strain. The body forces due to the rotating magnetic field are deduced from the established analytical results obtined from the solution of Maxwell's equations.
