The information about lab-on-a-chip device.
Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution
The lab-on-a-chip is integrated circuit device that integrates one or more laboratory function on a single chip. It is abbreviated as LOC. It can handle very small fluid volumes that are less than pico-liters
The advantages of lab-on-a-chips are listed below:
- Lab-on-chip requires less fluid volume consumption that results in less wastage and lower reagents cost.
- LOC analyses the experiments that are faster and responds quickly.
- The apparatus is compact since multiple functions are integrated.
- It is safe for radioactive or biological studies.
The disadvantages of lab-on-a-chip are listed below:
- The micro manufacturing requires expensive equipment and specialized personnel.
- Fine control is difficult for complex fluidic actuation networks that requires multiple pump and connectors.
The available commercial lab-on-a-chip devices are:
- Lithium Chip
- Fertility Chip
- Nanowire sensor for cancer diagnostics

For some viscoelastic polymers that are subjected to stress relaxation tests, the stress decays with
time according to
a(t) = a(0) exp(-4)
(15.10)
where σ(t) and o(0) represent the time-dependent and initial (i.e., time = 0) stresses, respectively, and t and T denote
elapsed time and the relaxation time, respectively; T is a time-independent constant characteristic of the material. A
specimen of a viscoelastic polymer whose stress relaxation obeys Equation 15.10 was suddenly pulled in tension to
a measured strain of 0.5; the stress necessary to maintain this constant strain was measured as a function of time.
Determine E (10) for this material if the initial stress level was 3.5 MPa (500 psi), which dropped to 0.5 MPa (70
psi) after 30 s.
For the flows in Examples 11.1 and 11.2, calculate the magnitudes of the Δ V2 / 2 terms omitted in B.E., and compare these with the magnitude of the ℱ terms.
Calculate ℛP.M. in Example 11.2.

- A simple ideal Brayton cycle operates with air with minimum and maximum temperatures of 27°C and 727°C. It is designed so that the maximum cycle pressure is 2000 kPa and the minimum cycle pressure is 100 kPa. The isentropic efficiencies of the turbine and compressor are 91% and 80%, respectively, and there is a 50 kPa pressure drop across the combustion chamber. Determine the net work produced per unit mass of air each time this cycle is executed and the cycle’s thermal efficiency. Use constant specific heats at room temperature. The properties of air at room temperature are cp = 1.005 kJ/kg·K and k = 1.4. The fluid flow through the cycle is in a clockwise direction from point 1 to 4. Heat Q sub in is given to a component between points 2 and 3 of the cycle. Heat Q sub out is given out by a component between points 1 and 4. An arrow from the turbine labeled as W sub net points to the right. The net work produced per unit mass of air is kJ/kg.
