Figure 8.2 Cylindrical geometry of the Krogh-Erlang model of blood-tissue exchange. The upper panel, from Middleman [141], illustrates the assumed parallel arrangement of capillaries with each vessel independently supplying a surrounding cylinder of tissue. A diagram of the model geometry is provided in the lower panel. Figure in upper panel is reprinted with the permission of John Wiley Sons, Inc.

Under the simplifying assumptions of the Krogh-Erlang model, the steady state oxygen distribution in the tissue at any position z is governed by the steady state diffusion equation in radial coordinates... [Pg.200]

Because Krogh credited the help of the mathematician Mr. Erlang [118] in deriving this formula, this model is appropriately referred to as the Krogh-Erlang model. [Pg.201]

Blood flow to tissue is usually measured as volume per unit time per unit volume or mass of tissue. Typical blood flow to heart tissue is of the order of 1 4 ml per minute per ml of tissue. If we denote tissue flow F, then flow and velocity in the Krogh-Erlang model are related... [Pg.202]
