Numerical Solution of Steady-State Electrodiffusion Equations for a Simple Membrane

Richard A Arndt, James D Bond, L David Roper
PMCID: PMC1483988  PMID: 5573369

Abstract

A technique is given for obtaining numerical solutions to the steady-state electrodiffusion equations for a simple membrane. Solutions are given for several membrane boundary conditions in terms of ratios of current density to mobility for each ion type.
