Semi-infinite: a transdermal patch is designed to deliver fgf-2 to surrounding tissue. the material is designed specifically to provide a stable surface concentration for a long period of time until the patch is removed.

(a) previous experiments have indicated a diffusivity of 5*10-8cm2/s. if this is a semi-infinite geometry, what does the surface concentration (in ug/ml) need to be in order to bring the concentration at the capillary bed depth of 400 μm to a concentration of 5μg/ml at 10 hours. assume the initial concentration in the tissue is 0 μg/ml.
(b) an in vitro experiment has indicated the concentration profile to be unexpected. concentration was measured with a tissue phantom over time for three different tissue formulations (replicate 1-3). what is the new expected diffusivity?

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.

Refrigerant 134a enters an insulated compressor operating at steady state as saturated vapor at -26°c with a volumetric flow rate of 0.18 m3/s. refrigerant exits at 9 bar, 70°c. changes in kinetic and potential energy from inlet to exit can be ignored. determine the volumetric flow rate at the exit, in m3/s, and the compressor power, in kw.
