A system, method and apparatus for performing a renal replacement therapy is provided. In one embodiment, two small high flux dialyzers are connected in series. A restriction is placed between the two dialyzers in the dialysate flow path. The restriction is variable and adjustable in one preferred embodiment. The restriction builds a positive pressure in the venous dialyzer, causing a high degree of intentional backfiltration. That backfiltration causes a significant flow of dialysate through the high flux venous membrane directly into the patient's blood. That backfiltered solution is subsequently ultrafiltered from the patient from the arterial dialyzer. The diffusion of dialysate into the venous filter and removal of dialysate from the arterial dialyzer causes a convective transport of toxins from the patient. Additionally, the dialysate that does not diffuse directly into the patient but instead flows across the membranes of both dialyzers provides a diffusive clearance of waste products.

Further, a restrictor is disposed adjacent to the rotatable means for restricting movement of the rotatable means between the open position and the close position.

A laser sustained plasma light source includes a plasma bulb containing a working gas flow driven by an electric current sustained within the plasma bulb. Charged particles are introduced into the working gas of the plasma bulb. An arrangement of electrodes maintained at different voltage levels drive the charged particles through the working gas. The movement of the charged particles within the working gas causes the working gas to flow in the direction of movement of the charged particles by entrainment. The resulting working gas flow increases convection around the plasma and increases laser to plasma interaction. The working gas flow within the plasma bulb can be stabilized and controlled by control of the voltages present on the each of the electrodes. A more stable flow of working gas through the plasma contributes to a more stable plasma shape and position within the plasma bulb.

Two-phase, boiling heat transfer in confined channels close to a source of heat, such as an electrical component or device, carries the latent heat of vapors away to remote locations where “real estate” demands of air convection are tolerable operationally, economically, and technologically. Liquid-to-vapor, phase-change, heat transfer in a narrow channel (e.g., typically less than 0.200 inches total thickness, and often less than 0.150 in the channel itself) improves by several hundred percent the heat extraction from modest temperature (e.g., about 120 degree F.) devices, when compared to heat fluxes in pool boiling. Saturated working fluids provide nearly isothermal conditions in the working fluid. Minimal conduction paths provide minimal temperature gradients, and capillary action may maintain nearly constant temperature conditions about a surface of a heat source, while carrying heat of vaporization away to a condensation location.
