Notation in mathematical model	Y_ARVR0
Allometric exponent	3/4

The parameter describes the dependence of blood flow through pulmonary capillaries from the difference between arterial pulmonary pressure and venous pulmonary pressure. Its physical meaning – a value inverse to resistance of the blood flow in the specified part of vascular system. The parameter is included in mathematical description of a law of blood flow through vessels as a factor Y_ARVR in equations describing the capillary pulmonary blood flow:

where P_AR - arterial pulmonary pressure, P_VR - venous pulmonary pressure.

The parameter is used for modelling of pathologic modes connected, for example, with the effect of vasospasm of peripheral vessels.
