Performance analysis of tubular membrane oxygenator with turbulent blood flow
Abstract:
This analysis of turbulent oxygenation predicts a substantial gain in the oxygen-transfer rate relative to current laminar flow membrane systems. As a consequence, major reductions in residence time, membrane area and priming volume would be possible. This straightforward application of the phenomenolgical theory of experiment. The potential gains sre sufficiently impressive to encourage such experimentation.
