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

Mathematical modeling

Governing equations

Consider steady flow of blood through a capillary of radius . The capillary cross section can be divided into a core region and cell-free plasma region near the wall. The governing equations for both regions can be given by the following equations:^[2]

where:

is the pressure drop across the capillary

is the length of capillary

is velocity in core region

is velocity of plasma in cell-free region

is viscosity in core region

is viscosity of plasma in cell-free region

is the cell-free plasma layer thickness

Boundary conditions

The boundary conditions to obtain the solution for the two differential equations presented above are that the velocity gradient is zero in the tube center, no slip occurs at the tube wall and the velocity and the shear stress are continuous at the interface between the two zones. These boundary conditions can be expressed mathematically as:

Velocity profiles

Integrating governing equations with respect to r and applying the above discussed boundary conditions will result in:

Volumetric flow rate for cell-free and core regions

Total volumetric flow rate is the algebraic sum of the flow rates in core and plasma region. The expression for the total volumetric flow rate can be written as:

Comparison with the viscosity which applies in the Poiseuille flow yields effective viscosity, as:

It can be realized when the radius of the blood vessel is much larger than the thickness of the cell-free plasma layer, the effective viscosity is equal to bulk blood viscosity at high shear rates (Newtonian fluid).

Relation between hematocrit and apparent/effective viscosity

Conservation of Mass Requires:

= Average Red Blood Cell (RBC) volume fraction in small capillary

= Average RBC volume fraction in the core layer

Blood viscosity as a fraction of hematocrit:
