When you inhale, air flows through the turbinate bones of your nasal passages as shown in Figure 1. Assume that for a short length of
19.8 mm, the flow is passing through vertical plates. Also, the plates having a mean total width of w=16.4 and spacing of a = 1 mm. If
the lungs produce a pressure drop of 44 Pa, and the air has a temperature of 20 C (with = 18.1 x 10-6 Pa.s and
p= 1.203 kg/m³),
