1. If the oxygen diffusion coefficient in tissue is assumed to be 1.1x10-5 cm2/s and fluid velocity is 1 mm/s, how large a distance between capillaries is required for convection to play an equally significant role as diffusion? Assuming an average distance between capillaries of 100 mm, does convection play a significant role? Use Peclet number to justify answers.

HW15-5) Oxygen Optimization is considering the caffeine project, which would involve selling caffeinated oxygen for 1 year. The firm expects sales of caffeinated oxygen to be 99,000 dollars and associated costs from providing caffeinated oxygen (such as tanks, filters, etc.) to be 64,000 dollars. The firm believes that sales of regular oxygen, which is currently sold by the firm, would be 35,000 dollars less with the addition of caffeinated oxygen, and that costs associated with regular oxygen to be 28,000...
