A computational model for microcirculation including Fahraeus‐Lindqvist effect, plasma skimming and fluid exchange with the tissue interstitium

We present a two‐phase model for microcirculation that describes the interaction of plasma with red blood cells. The model takes into account of typical effects characterizing the microcirculation, such as the Fahraeus‐Lindqvist effect and plasma skimming. Besides these features, the model describes the interaction of capillaries with the surrounding tissue. More precisely, the model accounts for the interaction of capillary transmural flow with...
