  1. Molecular diffusivity effects. Area averaged LDL concentration Cw/Co. Values refer to Reo = 95, K = 2.0 × 10-10 m/s and Vw = 0.6 × 10-8 m/s, D = 15.0 × 10-12 m2/s. The area averaged LDL concentration Cw/Co value over the entire LCA tree is 1.0348. The net amount of LDL mass per second taken up by all LCA tree luminal surface is 2.54 × 10-11g/s. The Cw/Co values over the LCA tree segments are.
