Which erroneous result arises using Bernoulli's equation with a non-Newtonian fluid?

💡 Explanation

Increased viscosity in non-Newtonian fluids causes greater energy dissipation via viscous friction, therefore the calculated pressure drop is erroneously lower, because Bernoulli's equation neglects shear thinning behaviour, therefore underestimates actual drop, rather than assuming kinetic energy accurately predicts it.
