Simulation Center The NYU Winthrop Hospital Simulation Center opened in a temporary facility in 2013. In 2015, the Simulation Center moved into the new Research and Academic Center located at 101 Mineola Boulevard.
Capillary flow porometry. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Capillary flow porometry, also known as porometry, is a characterization technique based on the displacement of a wetting liquid from the sample pores by applying a gas at increasing pressure.
In the glomerular capillaries, there is a net fluid filtration of 125 ml/min (about 180 litres/day). In the rest of the body's capillaries, there is a total net transcapillary fluid movement of 20 ml/min (about 28.8 litres/day) as a result of filtration. This is several orders of magnitude lower than the total diffusional water flux at the capillary membrane, as that is about 80,000 litres/day.
