Nutrient media is flowing at a rate of 1.5 L min in a tube that is 5 mm in diameter. The walls of the tube are covered with antibody-producing cells, and these cells are
anchored to the tube wall by their interaction with a special coating material that was applied to the surface of the tube. If one of these cells has a surface area of 500
um², what is the amount of force that each cell must resist as a result of the flow of this fluid in the tube? Assume the viscosity of the nutrient media is 1.2 cP=0.0012 Pa
sec.
Pores are important for the cells to enter and grow, as well as in capillary suction of tissue fluid and blood. They also provide a very large surface area for cell interaction. Calculate the surface area of a collagen sponge that is made of approximately 10,000,000 spherical pores (average 100 μm in diameter) that touch each other in one cubic centimeter.
Cooking an egg involves the denaturation of a protein called albumen. The time required to achieve a particular degree of denaturation is inversely proportional to the rate constant for the
process. This reaction has a high activation energy, E, = 418 kJ mol. Calculate how long it would take to cook a traditional three-minute egg on top of mountain peak on a day when
the atmospheric pressure there is 355 mmHg

- Nuclear fuel rods. A typical nuclear fuel rod contains circular uranium oxide (UO2) fuel pellets 10 mm in diameter and 5-mm thick stacked in a column to a length of 4 m inside a thin zirconium alloy tube, as shown below. The pellets generate heat uniformly throughout their volume due to nuclear fission, with a power density a (i.e., the heat power produced per unit volume of the pellet) that depends on their 235U enrichment. This heats up the water in the reactor to produce steam to drive the turbine. Assuming that the rim of the fuel pellet is maintained at a constant temperature Trim due to water cooling, show that the steady-state temperature profile T(r), where r is the radial distance from the centre of the pellet and fuel rod, 4.

(1965) in a series of classic experiments studied the flow of blood in capillary tubes of various diameters. The blood had a hematocrit of 39.3 and the temperature was 20°C. They measured the pressure drop as a function of the flow rate for five tube diameters ranging from 288 to 850 μm. When they expressed the measured pressure drops in terms of the wall shear stress, and the volumetric flow rates in terms of the reduced average velocity, all of the data for the various tube sizes formed, within the experimental accuracy, a single line as predicted by the Rabinowitsch equation expressed in terms of reduced average velocity. From their results they provide the following values of the Casson parameters at 20°C: τy = 0.0289 dynes cm−2 and s = 0.229 (dynes s cm−2)1/2. Using these values for τy and s, show that the equation below for reduced average velocity provides an excellent fit to their data summarized in the following table.
