GAS DYNAMICS AND JET PROPULSION 1. What is the basic difference between compressible and incompressible fluid flow? Compressible 1. Fluid velocities are appreciable compared with the velocity of sound 2. Density is not constant 3. Compressibility factor is greater than one. 2. Write the steady flow energy equation for an adiabatic flow of air. In an adiabatic flow q = 0. Therefore energy equation becomes. 2 c12 c2 h1 + + gZ1 = h2 + + gZ 2 + Ws 2 2 Incompressible 1. Fluid velocities are small

The American physiologist Walter Cannon used the term Homeostasis to describe the body’s ability to maintain a constant stable internal environment despite the changes to the external surrounding1‚2. The body has a range of receptors these are used to constantly monitor the body’s internal conditions to keep them in physiological limits. To achieve this‚ every organ works together and thus the body works together as a whole. This requires body to communicate with the organs‚ this is established through

CRITIQUE OF A CARDIOVASCULAR RISK ASSESSMENT TOOL INTRODUCTION. Risk assessment tools to estimate the patient’s 10-year risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) should be used to identify high-risk patients for primary prevention. The latest National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) guidance (2010) does not recommend any particular risk calculator. According to patient (2013) those calculators which are based on the Framingham risk equation may overestimate risk

How things flow through the heart: • blood drains into the right atrium through the superior vena cava‚ inferior vena cava‚ and the coronary sinus (drains the heart muscle itself)→Right Ventricle→pulmonary semilunar valves→lungs→pulmonary veins→left atrium→bicuspid valve→left ventricle→aortic semilunar valve→systemic circuit. What the valves do: • Prevent backflow into the atria and ventricles‚ ensuring that blood only flows one way through the heart. what vessels bring blood to the heart and

Both the cardiovascular and respiratory system help each other by working together to make sure that the tissues of the body are getting the correct amount of oxygen so that they can help the body to work efficiently as possible. They also help to make sure that carbon dioxide is forced out. The cardiovascular and respiratory system start to work together when the oxygen from the surroundings/environment enter through the nose‚ this will start the process where the body will receive the oxygen.

The cardiovascular system consists of the heart‚ blood vessels‚ and blood. This system has three main functions: Transport of nutrients‚ oxygen‚ and hormones to cells throughout the body and removal of metabolic wastes (carbon dioxide‚ nitrogenous wastes). Atria: Ventricles: In a four-chambered heart‚ such as that in humans‚ there are two ventricles that operate in a double circulatory system: the right ventricle pumps blood into the pulmonary circulation to the lungs‚ and the left ventricle pumps
