Investigation of electrokinetic mixing in 3D non-homogenous microchannels
A numerical study of 3D electrokinetic flows through micromixers was performed. The micromixers considered here consisted of heterogeneous rectangular microchannels with prescribed patterns of zeta-potential at their walls. Numerical simulation of electroosmotic flows within heterogeneous channels requires solution of the Navier-Stokes, Ernest-Plank and species concentration equations. It is kn...
متن کاملCO(2) dissolution in water using long serpentine microchannels.
The evolution of carbon dioxide bubbles dissolving in water is experimentally examined using long microchannels. We study the coupling between bubble hydrodynamics and dissolution in confined geometries. The gas impregnation process in liquid produces significant flow rearrangements. Depending on the initial volumetric liquid fraction, three operating regimes are identified, namely saturating, ...
متن کاملMixing process of immiscible fluids in microchannels
The paper is concerned with experimental investigations and numerical simulations of immiscible flows in microchannels in the presence of interfacial surface tension. The aim of the present study is to model the unsteady dynamics of the vortical structures and interface shape in the Y-branching geometries with square cross-sections. The tested fluids are Newtonian and weakly elastic polyacrylam...
متن کاملGeometric effects on fluid mixing in passive grooved micromixers.
The effects of geometric parameters on the mixing performance of a staggered herringbone mixer (SHM) with patterned grooves are numerically investigated. Combining use of the software package CFD-ACE+ and the Taguchi method provides a powerful and systematic approach for research on microfluidics. An orthogonal array L9(3(4)) is established for parameters introduced by the groove geometry; in t...
