Will Rate Quick!

The Reynolds number, Re, is a dimensionless number used to characterize different flow regimes in a fluid. The Reynolds number can be defined as re= DVp/mu where D is the diameter of the pipe, V is the mean fluid velocity, rho is the density of the fluid, and mu is the dynamic viscosity of the fluid What is the Reynolds number of blood leaving the heart through the aorta if it has a dynamic viscosity of mu = 3.70 cP (centipoise), a density of p = 1057 kg/m3, travels at a mean fluid velocity of V = 32.9 cm/s, and the diameter of the aorta is D = 2.15 cm

Explanation / Answer

from centipoise to Ns/m^2

3.7 will be 0.0037

it will be 0.0215*0.329*1057/(0.0037)

= 2020.72
