Question
Question:
You are working in an operating room with dimensions of 20 x 20 x 10 feet. During the case, the inspiratory hose becomes disconnected, which you detect and correct very quickly. However the disconnect results in 3 L of N2O entering into the OR air. Because of the rapid air movement in the OR, the N2O is quickly (and evenly) mixed with the air in the OR. You estimate the peak concentration, in parts-per-million, of N2O in the OR to be:

The inner core of the cylinder is filled with a porous material. The flow in this porous region is slow and assumed to be a plug-type flow such that the velocity is constant and everywhere the same inside the porous region. Denote this velocity by Uo. The flow in the open (non-porous) region is steady, Newtonian, incompressible and axisymmetric. It will be assumed that only the axial (x) component of the velocity is non-zero. Flow Open flow T&R Porous media flow R N.B. All your answers must be expressed in terms of µ, U₁, a, R and dP/dx. (a) Use the continuity and Navier-Stokes equations to determine the expression of the velocity in the open region. (b) What is the expression of the average velocity in the open region?

- A sedimentation package has been purchased to remove solid particles from the waste stream of a chemical plant. The density of spherical particles varies from 800 to 8000 kg/m3. Plot the minimum size of particles that can be separated by this vessel, as a function of particle's density (assuming unhindered sedimentation). The density and viscosity of waste fluid are 1000 kg/m3, and 0.001 Pas. Use the C, plot to determine the drag coefficient.
