A mathematical analysis of the velocity factor of the oxygenation of the red cell has been performed in connection with the experimental data presented in the foregoing papers. The concise expression of the velocity factor, Fc, is expressed as follows:
Fc=Fs1.26μ12αD/δ2Fs1.21+μ12αD
where Fs1.26 is the velocity factor of the chemical reaction in the red cell;δ, the thickness of the red cell; D, the diffusion coefficient;α, the O2 solubility and μ1, the eigen value.
