What of Embalming Fluids? Our earliest knowledge of when/where embalming first occurred was around over 5‚000 years ago in Egypt. Then‚ embalming was used for religious purposes and to keep the body from decaying until Christianity began to dominate; Embalming purposes were turned into being used for body preservation for dissection and studying. In the U.S though‚ there originally wasn’t any true way of embalming for funeral reasons. Originally we just used ice in order

INTRODUCTION Open- and closed-loop transfer functions have certain basic characteristics that permit transient and steady-state analyses of the feedback-controlled system. Five factors of prime importance in feedback-control systems are stability‚ the existence and magnitude of the steady-state error‚ controllability‚ observability‚ and parameter sensitivity. The stability characteristic of a linear time-invariant system is determined from the system’s characteristic equation. Routh’s stability

The boundary layer temperature distribution at a given location on the plate may be approximated as T = 30 + 70 exp ( −y ) where y (in m) is the distance normal to the plate and T is in °C. If thermal conductivity of the fluid is 1.0W/mK‚ the local convective heat transfer coefficient (in W/m2K) at that location will

DRILLING FLUIDS The key to making the rotary drilling system work is the ability to circulate a fluid continuously down through the drill pipe‚ out through the bit nozzles and back to the surface. The drilling fluid can be air‚ foam (a combination of air and liquid or a liquid. Liquid drilling fluids are commonly called drilling mud. All drilling fluids‚ especially drilling mud‚ can have a wide range of chemical and physical properties. These properties are specifically designed for

ABSTRACT/ SUMMARY The objective of this experiment is to determine the characteristics of open-channel flow. The types of flow to be determined are rectangular notch and triangular v-notch. Another objective of the experiment is to determine the discharge coefficients for both notches. The experiment for rectangular notch begins with admitting water to the channel. At this point‚ the water flow must be adjusted by using control valve in order to obtain heads (H). Throughout the experiment‚ five

properties‚ such as buoyancy‚ drag resistance and propulsion. We swimmers are at a constant battle to stay afloat‚ while fighting through the water and propelling ourselves forward‚ and we do so using technique. Buoyancy is the power to float or rise in a fluid. This relates to swimming because when you’re in the water‚ you have to be able stay afloat. Buoyancy is the net upward force acting on the swimmer‚ as the depth of the water increases‚ so does the pressure. The pressure bellow the swimmer is greater

Many fluids undergo continuous deformation with the application of shearing stress. 2) Define Newtonian fluids If the force flow relation is linear then the fluid is Newtonian . 3) Define Non Newtonian fluids If the force flow relation is non linear then the fluid is Newtonian . 4) Define Kinematic Viscosity.
