The apparent viscosity of human blood has been reported as


The apparent viscosity of human blood has been reported as 6.49 cP at a shear rate of 10 s^-1, and 4.66 cP at a shear rate of 80 s^-1. Assuming that blood is a non – Newtonian fluid, estimate the volumetric flow through a capillary of diameter 1 mm with pressure driving force of 100 mm Hg. The capillary is 8.0 m long. (A) Assume the blood follows a power law; (B) Assume the blood is a Bingham plastic.
