Abstract:
Redistribution of potentials resulting from electron injection into the body volume was estimated for the set distribution of concentrations of Na+,K+,Cl- in the vicinity of the body outer surface obtained from Poisson equation and assumption concerning Bolzman distribution of these ions (generalization of Gui-Chapman model). Relation of the potential minimum with the parameters of the system of distance from the outer surface was shown, i.e. with the maximal electron concentration, which can help while optimizing the galvanic effect.
