Mixing Performance of a Serpentine Micromixer with Non-Aligned Inputs
In this study, a numerical investigation on mixing and flow structure in a serpentine microchannel with non-aligned input channels was performed. The non-aligned input channels generate a vortical flow, which is formed by incoming fluid streams through tangentially aligned channels. Mixing index was evaluated to measure the degree of mixing in the micromixer. Analyses of mixing and flow field w...
متن کاملBoussinesq Convection: Combining the Navier--Stokes and Advection--Diffusion equations
We study convection of an incompressible Newtonian fluid heated from below in a two-dimensional domain of height H: the Bénard problem. The lower wall is maintained at a temperature θbottom and the upper wall is maintained at a temperature θtop, where θbottom > θtop . The governing equations are the (2D) Navier–Stokes equations under the Boussinesq approximation, in which all variations in phys...
متن کاملBiophysical Micromixer
In this study a biophysical passive micromixer with channel anamorphosis in a space of 370 μm, which is shorter than traditional passive micromixers, could be created by mimicing features of vascular flow networks and executed with Reynolds numbers ranging from 1 to 90. Split and recombination (SAR) was the main mixing method for enhancing the convection effect and promoting the mixing performa...

متن کاملAn ultrashort mixing length micromixer: the shear superposition micromixer.
We report for the first time a laminar high-performance continuous micromixing process of two fluids over a length of 200 microns in under 10 milliseconds achieved by an optimization of the control parameters amplitude and frequency in the mixing device denoted as 'Shear Superposition Micromixer'. We improve mixing time by approximately 5 orders of magnitude over diffusion-limited mixing. The d...
