Computational Fluid Dynamics Modelling of Microfluidic Channel for Dielectrophoretic BioMEMS Application
We propose a strategy for optimizing distribution of flow in a typical benchtop microfluidic chamber for dielectrophoretic application. It is aimed at encouraging uniform flow velocity along the whole analysis chamber in order to ensure DEP force is evenly applied to biological particle. Via the study, we have come up with a constructive strategy in improving the design of microfluidic channel ...
متن کاملapplication of computational fluid dynamics for modeling of secondary flow cells in trapezoidal channel
channel flows have three components of velocity, 1component in flow direction and 2components in spanwise of channel. because of heterogeneity of velocity undulations, in the channel section the vortices are formed that are nominated “secondary current cells”. these cells cause the lateral shear stress in the channel walls and introduce the erosion and scour of the channel walls. heterogeneity ...
متن کاملApplication of computational fluid dynamics modelling to an ozone contactor#
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling has been applied to examine the operation of the pre-ozonation system at Wiggins Waterworks, operated by Umgeni Water in Durban, South Africa. A hydraulic model has been satisfactorily verified by experimental tracer tests. The turbulence effect induced by the gas injection was modelled by increasing the level of turbulence intensity at the ozone con...
متن کاملComputational Fluid Dynamics in Microfluidic Systems
Computer simulations are an indispensable tool in microfluidics because of the lack of analytical solutions. We have developed a simulation tool in Matlab based on the finite element method (FEM). At the present stage, the tool can be employed to handle general second order partial differential equations in two dimensions. The tool has been applied to model incompressible laminar flow, and it h...
متن کاملComputational fluid dynamics modelling in cardiovascular medicine
This paper reviews the methods, benefits and challenges associated with the adoption and translation of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling within cardiovascular medicine. CFD, a specialist area of mathematics and a branch of fluid mechanics, is used routinely in a diverse range of safety-critical engineering systems, which increasingly is being applied to the cardiovascular system. By...
