In order to calculate more generally the space-charge limited current between two points of different voltage, modern differential geometrical methods are applied. This problem was first treated by Child (1911) and later by Langmuir (1913). It is possible, for example, to account for effects due to more than one charge component as well as the influence of a neutral background gas (which causes ionization and scattering of charge carriers). A systematic derivation of the self-consistent representation based on a Hamilton theory for density functions is given, and solution methods are discussed. The concept is designed to investigate ion and electron diodes with very intense currents, but it may also be useful for treating space charge problems in a stationary plasma.

Airway lengthening after pneumonectomy (PNX) may increase diffusive resistance to gas mixing (1/DG); the effect is accentuated by increasing acinar gas density but is difficult to detect from lung CO-diffusing capacity (Dl CO). Because lung NO-diffusing capacity (Dl NO) is three- to fivefold that of Dl CO, whereas 1/DG for NO and CO are similar, we hypothesized that a density-dependent fractional reduction would be greater for Dl NO than for Dl CO. We measured Dl NOand Dl CO at two tidal volumes (Vt) and with three background gases [helium (He), nitrogen (N2), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6)] in immature dogs 3 and 9 mo after right PNX (5 and 11 mo of age). At maturity (11 mo), background gas density had no effect on Dl NO, Dl CO, or Dl NO-to-Dl CO ratio in sham controls. In PNX animals, Dl NO declined 25–50% in SF6 relative to He and N2, and Dl NO/Dl CO declined ∼50% in SF6 relative to He at a Vt of 15 ml/kg, consistent with a significant 1/DG. At 5 mo of age, Dl NO/Dl CO declined 25–45% in SF6 relative to He and N2 in both groups, but Dl CO increased paradoxically in SF6 relative to N2 or He by 20–60%. Findings suggest that SF6, besides increasing 1/DG, may redistribute ventilation and/or enhance acinar penetration of the convective front.
