Translate original model from Matlab into JSim mml. Four compartment ODE model consisting of Systemic capillary and tissue, Pulmonary capillary, and alveolus compartments. Uses an iterative approach to calculating partial pressures of O2 and CO2 in the capillaries using Dash et al. 2016 simplified calculations for O2 and CO2 binding to Hb.

Description

 Recirculating 4-compartment model for O2-CO2 transport and exchange between the lungs 
 and a systemic organ, say heart. Instantaneous equilibrium binding of O2 and CO2 with 
 the hemoglobin (Hb) inside red blood cells (RBCs) is considered. The subscripts "Alv", 
 "PulCap", "SysCap", and "SysTis" indicate the four comaprtments "alveoli", "pulmonary 
 capillary", "systemic capillary", and "systemic tissue", respectively. The model solves
 the dynamics of four state variables (O2, CO2, HCO3M, HP) in the four compartments. The
 aleveoli compartment does not have HCO3M and HP, resulting in 14 mass conservation ODEs
