Diffusion vs. facilitated transport
a. if diffusion was the only mode of oxygen transport, how long would it take for a molecule of oxygen to diffuse from your lungs to the most distal part of your body (toes)? assume d = 2.1 x 10-5 cm2/s and work the problem for 1-d, 2-d and 3-d.
b. compare this diffusion time with the amount of time a red blood cell travels from your heart to your big toe.

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
