... For example, glucose molecules (relative molecular mass 240) in water (relative molecular mass 18) take 10-3 s to diffuse 10-6 m but 109 s (about 20 y) for 1 m. Diffusion is an effective mechanism of transport of materials over typical cell dimensions (less than about 10-5 m) in water. For example j ...

Physiology of urinary system
... The rate of glomerular filtration is a function of the - net filtration pressure, - the permeability of the filtration membrane, - the surface area available for filtration. The measured GFR reflects these factors, and the total number of functioning nephrons. Average GFR is 125 ml/min for a healthy ...

Derivation of Flow Equations
... The Saint Venant equations that were derived in the early 1870s by Barre de Saint-Venant, may be obtained through the application of control volume theory to a differential element of a river reach. The Navier-Stokes equations can be simplified for one-dimensional flow. However, it is more intuitive ...
