The diffusion coefficients employed in the simulations are as follows : thrombin (Th), D=10−11m2∕s (this value represents only the order of magnitude of D for thrombin); heparin (Hep), D=10−10m2∕s; NO, D=10−9m2∕s. Other parameters used are listed in Table .

Concentrations obtained by adding contributions from single infusion regions, calculated using Eqs. , were compared to concentrations obtained with FEM. Other parameters employed in the calculations are shown in Table .

Flow rate oscillated sinusoidally between 100ml∕min and 300ml∕min. Diamonds, end of infusion region (x=0mm); squares, x=50mm. Note that the concentration scales at x=0 and x=50mm are different, and that the amplitudes of oscillation are much smaller than those of a quasisteady oscillatory flow (see also Table ). Other parameters employed in the calculations are shown in Table .
