- On Monday the 13th November 2017, we brainstormed about how we will do a shakedown similar to the human capillary. The picture below shows the formulas that we thought to use in imitating the flow in the human capillary (formulas are on the down right side of the whiteboard)
- On Tuesday the 14th November 2017, we brainstormed different ideas and then after we chose the shakedown test that we would use. The pictures below show those ideas. The 3rd picture shows the prototype we chose.
- On Thursday the 16th November 2017, the shakedown was performed. The picture below shows the specifications
- The pictures below show the setup, the before and after the shakedown test.
- Explanation: The test was run for 2 minutes and completed 32 rotations. The tube was placed across half of the tube with markers on the outside and the other end at the center of the disc. The markers were inside the tube at the beginning of the test and they moved inwards through the tube during the test. The resistance that the markers faced was based on the tube itself which had a 1/8inches inner diameter and 12 inches long.
The picture with two tubes side by side shows the before and after marker positions
