The similarity solution of axisymmetric wall jets with swirl on bodies of revolution for non-Newtonian power-law fluids is presented. The physical and geometrical meaning of all parameters appearing in the course of similarity procedure is treated in detail. Especially, the functional dependence of length, velocity, and pressure similarity scales on the shape and swirl parameters and the power-law flow behaviour index is determined. The already published results related to the similarity solution obtained are discussed.
