Experiment 1 Fluid Flow In A Smooth Pipe Abstract In this experiment‚ three variable flow meters are used to alter the flowrate. Changes in pressure drop due to the change in flowrate are then observed from the three pressure gauges that can measure pressure at different range and recorded. The shift from laminar flow to turbulent flow is seen from the results recorded‚ but it is observed more clearly from the water-soluble dye experiment that was carried out by the demonstrator. Laminar flow

describing the differences between intracellular fluid and extracellular fluid in the first observation is completely obvious. When reading the words intracellular and extracellular it can be seen that one is the interior of the cell and the other is the exterior of the cell. Intracellular fluid is restricted to the interior of the cell‚ and the cell membrane is the borderline of cytosol or cytoplasmic matrix. The compartments of the intracellular fluid are very important to know‚ as it contains mostly

Absolute entropy is entropy calculated relative to the absolute reference point determined by the third law of thermodynamics. Absolute humidity (specific humidity or humidity ratio) is the mass of water vapor present in a unit mass of dry air; that is‚ it is the ratio of the mass of water vapor to the mass of dry air in atmospheric air. Absolute pressure is the actual pressure at a given position and it is measured relative to absolute vacuum (i.e.‚ absolute zero pressure). Throughout this

Lab 7: The Kidney’s Role in Fluid Balance Introduction The renal system performs a vital role in homeostasis. The kidneys’ ability to retain valuable constituents and expel metabolic wastes from the body enables this system to regulate the volume‚ osmolarity‚ and pH of body’s internal fluid environment (Sherwood‚ 2007‚ p. 511). The functional unit of the kidney‚ referred to as the nephron‚ is composed of both tubular components—Bowman’s capsule proximal tubule‚ loop of Henle‚ the distal tubule

Fluid Mechanics Laboratory 2 Report Robby Joseph 14103508 1.0 Introduction This experiment was undertaken for the study of flow in pipes and the factors that affect it in both laminar and turbulent regimes. The transitional regime between laminar and turbulent flow will also be studied. The experiment was done using a pipe with a known diameter‚ and water was pumped in from a tank. Throughout the process‚ measurements of the quantity of water and time were taken as well as the hydraulic gradient

MAE130B Concept/Question/Comments Film: Channel Flow of a Compressible Fluid Due Date: March 15‚ 2013 Concept 1: Choking Choking occurs when the Mach number at the throat of a channel flow is equal to one. Conceptually choking is the phenomena where the flow in a channel transitions to sonic flow. Due to the conditions of choking‚ the velocity‚ density‚ and pressure can increase or decrease continuously through a sonic throat‚ and the flow does not need to be symmetrical. Another notable phenomena

IV Fluid Balance Assessment 1. According to the reported data‚ my water intake is still short about 100ml/day‚ and the fluid mostly comes from water. In order to prevent the dehydration‚ which might eventually cause coma and death if severe‚ as well as increased burden on kidney and decreased blood electrolyte caused by over-consumption of water‚ the better choices will be juices that are fortified vitamins‚ such as orange juice where usually vitamin A and calcium and some other B-complex vitamins
