The first step in inflammation is for immune cells (leukocytes) to roll to a stop on the inside of the blood vessel wall near the site to be inflamed. This is accomplished by molecules of E-selectin, which are produced by and incorporated into the endothelial cells lining the blood vessel wall, binding to molecules of sialyl-Lewis(x), which are produced by and incorporated into the leukocytes. Dr. Dan Hammer (of the Univ. of Pennsylvania) and his students have produced glass beads to which they have covalently bound sialyl-Lewis(x). They flow these between a microscope slide and cover glass. E-selectin has been covalently conjugated to the microscope slide. They then flow the glass beads over the microscope slide at various flow rates and measure the relative numbers of free-flowing, rolling, and stopped beads. Imagine it is your first day in his lab as a student researcher, and Dr. Hammer asks that, instead of reporting your data in terms of flow rate, report your data in terms of shear rate at the surface of the microscope slide. [See diagram below for a representation of the physical set-up of the device] (a) Write the appropriate momentum balance (shell balance for momentum) with all important terms. Write all applicable boundary conditions.
(b) Let the flow rate (Q) be 10 ml/min (= 1.67x10-7 m3/s), and solve for the shear stress at the bottom surface. Use information from the diagram and the viscosity of water at room temperature to fill in numerical values for all of the other parameters. [Hint: Q ? v A because v = f(z)]
(c) Estimate the inlet pressure necessary to achieve the flow rate Q. Make sure to account for frictional losses in your estimation

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
