In this question we are given that the blood flowing through the heat's aorta has a
Viscosity- 4.0x10^-3 Pa.s
Density - 1.1x10^3 Kg.m^-3
Average Velocity - 0.25m/s
Diameter - 2.0x10^-2 m
We are asked to find the average velocity and Reynolds number if the aorta has half the diameter.
First i found the reynolds number of the heart with its original diameter (2.0x10^-2 m) which gives me 13750
using r=[(Average Velocity)(Density)(Diameter)) / (Viscosity)]
but i am unsure of what to do than.
Please Help
