  1. 7.19 Blood flows through a membrane oxygenator at a rate of 5000 mL/min−1. The entering pO2 of the blood is 40 mmHg and the exiting blood pO2 is 95 mmHg. Calculate the amount of oxygen transported into the blood in μmol s−1 and in mL of oxygen per minute at 37°C and 1 atm.

Blood flows through a vessel with a radius of 5.0 mm at a rate of 100 mL/min. Blood flow is proportional to the fourth power of the vessel radius (radius4). calculate or estimate the effect of changing the radius to: a. 1.0 mm Blood flow would (increase/decrease) to _______ mL/min b. 50.0 mm Blood flow would (increase/decrease) to _______ mL/min

4.1A membrane made of 0.1 mm thick soft rubber separates pure O2 at 1 atm and 25oC from air at 1.2 atm pressure. Determine the mass flow rate of O2 through the membrane per unit area and the direction of flow. Molar flow rate of oxygen is given by: ???? = ???????? / ??? (????1 ? ????2 ) where S is solubility of oxygen in rubber. The mass diffusivity of oxygen in rubber at 298 K is DAB = 2.1...

Task #1: Respiration Rate Changes in Minnows as a Function of External Temperature (adapted from exercise developed by Daphne McKay) Introduction Counting gill cover movements is a way to calculate respiration rates in fish. Fish breathe by taking water in through the mouth and forcing it over the gills when the mouth closes. An oxygen-carbon dioxide exchange occurs. Then the operculum opens to allow the carbon dioxide-rich water to exit. The respiration rate changes in response to changes in the...

1) A nozzle is a device for increasing the velocity of a steadily flowing stream of fluid. At the inlet to a certain nozzle the enthalpy of the fluid is 3025 kJ/kg and the velocity is 60 m/s. At the exit from the nozzle the enthalpy is 2790 kJ/kg. The nozzle is horizontal and there is negligible heat loss from it. (i) Find the velocity at the nozzle exit. (ii) If the inlet area is 0.1 m2 and specific volume...
