Cell-free marginal layer model
Appearance
The cell-free layer is a near-wall layer of plasma absent of red blood cells since they are subject to migration to the tube center in Poiseuille flow[1] .Cell-free marginal layer model is a mathematical model which tries to explain Fåhræus–Lindqvist effect mathematically.
