For generalized Newtonian fluids, Ansys Polyflow can calculate the local value of the viscosity, which can depend on the shear rate and/or the temperature. The viscosity will appear as a scalar field in your graphical postprocessing program.
The procedure for specifying the calculation of the local viscosity is as follows:
Create a new sub-task.
Create a sub-task
Select Postprocessor as the sub-task type.
Postprocessor
When prompted, enter a name for the postprocessor sub-task.
In the F.E.M. Task Postprocessor menu, select Viscosity.

Ansys Polydata will tell you where the calculation will be performed. You can click to continue.
No additional parameters or boundary conditions are required.
