| Abstract: | Approximate analytical and numerical solutions of a partial differential equation are obtained which describe the diffusion of oxygen in an absorbing medium. Essential mathematical difficulties are associated with the presence of a moving boundary which marks the furthest penetration of oxygen into the medium and also with the need to allow for an initial distribution of oxygen through the medium. |
