Oxygen and CO2 transfer of a polypropylene dimpled membrane lung with variable secondary flows.
Gas transfer performance is presented for one form of the Oxford membrane lung in which vortex mixing is induced in blood flow across a dimpled polypropylene membrane. Dimensional analysis has been used to define the parameters characterizing mass transfer in the device, and of three fluid mechanica...
