Electro-osmotic Flow Through a Rotating Microchannel
An analytical model is presented for electro-osmotic flow through a wide rectangular microchannel rotating about an axis perpendicular to its own. The flow is driven by a steady electric field applied along the channel axis, where the upper and lower walls are charged with uniform but possibly disparate zeta potentials. The aim is to understand the interaction between Coriolis force, pressure g...
متن کاملElectro-osmotic flow of semidilute polyelectrolyte solutions.
We investigate electro-osmosis in aqueous solutions of polyelectrolytes using mean-field equations. A solution of positively charged polyelectrolytes is confined between two negatively charged planar surfaces, and an electric field is applied parallel to the surfaces. When electrostatic attraction between the polymer and the surface is strong, the polymers adhere to the surface, forming a highl...
متن کاملIonic Origin of Electro-osmotic Flow Hysteresis.
Electro-osmotic flow, the driving of fluid at nano- or micro-scales with electric field, has found numerous applications, ranging from pumping to chemical and biomedical analyses in micro-devices. Electro-osmotic flow exhibits a puzzling hysteretic behavior when two fluids with different concentrations displace one another. The flow rate is faster when a higher concentration solution displaces ...
متن کاملElectro-osmotic flow of a model electrolyte.
Electro-osmotic flow is studied by nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations in a model system chosen to elucidate various factors affecting the velocity profile and facilitate comparison with existing continuum theories. The model system consists of spherical ions and solvent, with stationary, uniformly charged walls that make a channel with a height of 20 particle diameters. We find that ...
متن کاملPatterning electro-osmotic flow with patterned surface charge.
This Letter reports the measurement of electro-osmotic flows (EOF) in microchannels with surface charge patterned on the 200 microm scale. We have investigated two classes of patterns: (1) Those in which the surface charge varies along a direction perpendicular to the electric field used to drive the EOF; this type of pattern generates multidirectional flow along the direction of the field. (2)...
