The velocity-diffusion equation in the exchange microvessels

What is it about?

The objective of this work was to transform the classical flow-diffusion equation into a new form with axial velocity V as an independent variable instead of volume flow Q.

Why is it important?

The new form was called the velocity-diffusion (V-J) equation and has the advantage that V can be measured directly in vivo by optical imaging techniques. The V-J equation could have important applications in the calculation of the mass diffusion rate of various substances in vivo.
