Gas Transfer in Cellularized Collagen-Membrane Gas Exchange Devices.
Chronic lower respiratory disease is highly prevalent in the United States, and there remains a need for alternatives to lung transplant for patients who progress to end-stage lung disease. Portable or implantable gas oxygenators based on microfluidic technologies can address this need, provided they operate both efficiently and biocompatibly. Incorporating biomimetic materials into such device...
متن کاملMembrane Gas Exchange White Paper
Membranes have emerged as an attractive approach to separating materials in many industries, from medical to chemical to water. When formed into hollow fiber tubes, membranes deliver highly efficient operation in a small footprint. The advantages are numerous: low energy requirements, simplicity of operation, and high specificity. This paper explains the principles behind membrane transport and...
متن کاملImpact of Measuring Devices and Data Analysis on the Determination of Gas Membrane Properties
The time-lag method, using a gas permeation experiment, is currently the most popular method for determining the membrane properties: diffusivity coefcient and permeability coefcient, and from which the solubility coefcient can be calculated. In this investigation, the impact of systematic, random (noise), resolution and extrapolation errors associated with gas permeatio...
متن کاملIn-plane gas permeability of proton exchange membrane fuel cell gas diffusion layers
A new analytical approach is proposed for evaluating the in-plane permeability of gas diffusion layers (GDLs) of proton exchange membrane fuel cells. In this approach, the microstructure of carbon papers is modeled as a combination of equally-sized, equally-spaced fibers parallel and perpendicular to the flow direction. The permeability of the carbon paper is then estimated by a blend of the pe...
متن کاملThrough-Plane Gas Permeability of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell Gas Diffusion Layers
Effects of mechanical compression and PTFE content on the through-plane gas permeability of gas diffusion layers (GDLs) of PEM fuel cells are investigated both experimentally and theoretically. A new test bed is designed and built which allows pressure drop and air flow rate measurement for various fibrous samples. The measured values are used to calculate the through-plane permeability. Variou...
