Numerical Simulation of an Electroosmotic Micromixer
We present a micromixer fabricated using MEMS technology which takes advantage of electroosmosis to mix fluids. A time dependent electric field is applied and the resulting electroosmosis perturbs the low Reynolds number flow. It is shown that the electric field can be deemed quasi-steady and the electroosmotic slip boundary condition can be applied when the incompressible Navier Stokes equatio...
متن کاملAn Enhanced Electroosmotic Micromixer with an Efficient Asymmetric Lateral Structure
Homogeneous and rapid mixing in microfluidic devices is difficult to accomplish, owing to the low Reynolds number associated with most flows in microfluidic channels. Here, an efficient electroosmotic micromixer based on a carefully designed lateral structure is demonstrated. The electroosmotic flow in this mixer with an asymmetrical structure induces enhanced disturbance in the micro channel, ...
متن کاملExperimental Study of Electrolyte Dependence of Ac Electroosmotic Pumps
Recent studies indicate increased efficiency of microfluidic ac electro-osmotic pumps by utilizing broken symmetries with raised steps on the electrodes. An experimental study on the dependence of ac electroosmosis in microchannels on solution chemistry for the new fast aceo stepped pumps is reported. Micro PIV was used to determine peak velocities for M mM ! " concentrations of KCl, NaCl, CaCl...
متن کاملExperimental and theoretical characterization of a new Schiff-base ligand
Here, new N,N′-dipyridoxyl(4,4''-diaminodiphenylether) Schiff-base ligand has been synthesized and characterized by IR, 1H NMR and mass spectrometry. Also, geometry optimization and theoretical assignment of IR spectrum of the ligand have been computed by employing density functional theory (DFT) method. Two pyridine rings and benzene rings in the bridge region are not in the same plane. The ca...
متن کاملNumerical and experimental characterization of a novel modular passive micromixer.
This paper reports a new low-cost passive microfluidic mixer design, based on a replication of identical mixing units composed of microchannels with variable curvature (clothoid) geometry. The micromixer presents a compact and modular architecture that can be easily fabricated using a simple and reliable fabrication process. The particular clothoid-based geometry enhances the mixing by inducing...
