A second-order lattice Boltzmann algorithm is used for Power-Law non-Newtonian flow simulation. The shear dependent behavior of the fluid is implemented through calculating the shear locally from the lattice distribution functions. A step by step verification procedure is taken to ensure the accuracy and the physical correctness of the numerical simulation. The flow past a series of tandem arrangement of two cylinders is computed in a confined domain. The effects of Reynolds number, the Power-Law index, and the distance between two cylinders on both the flow field and the drag coefficients of the cylinders are examined in detail.
