For a certain power-law type non-Newtonian fluid in a bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^3\), for which the equations of motion are proved to have existence and uniqueness of solution property, the authors find estimates for the fractal dimension of a global attractor in terms of relevant physical constants. The fluid is incompressible and homogeneous. Its stress tensor has a general polynomial dependence on the symmetric velocity gradient.
