- Merrill et al. (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.

In this configuration, the roots of the strawberry plants are exposed to water that flows continuously through cylindrical pipes, driven by a pressure pump. The pipes are oriented horizontally so that the nutrient-containing water flows in the axial (x) direction. You are wondering whether this design is sufficient to support the needs of your strawberry plants. Let’s begin by considering the transport of nutrient-containing water through one hollow pipe. The viscosity of nutrient-containing water is 1.5 x 10-3 N·s/m2 and the density is 1000 kg/m3. Gravitational acceleration is g = 9.8 m/s2.

The air flows at a speed of 2.5 m/s and has a temperature of 25.0°C. The plate measures 600.0 mm · 300.00 mm.
