Numerical 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...
متن کاملNumerical 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 کاملNumerical radius and distance from unitary operators
Denote by w(A) the numerical radius of a bounded linear operator A acting on Hilbert space. Suppose that A is invertible and that w(A) ≤ 1+ε and w(A−1) ≤ 1+ε for some ε ≥ 0. It is shown that inf{‖A−U‖ : U unitary} ≤ cε for some constant c > 0. This generalizes a result due to J.G. Stampfli, which is obtained for ε = 0. An example is given showing that the exponent 1/4 is optimal. The more gener...
متن کاملNumerical Analysis and Experimental Validation of Detector Pressure Housing Subject to HPHT
Reservoirs with high pressures and temperatures (HPHT) that were considered to be atypical in the past are now frequent targets for exploration. For downhole oilfield drilling tools and components, the temperature and pressure affect the mechanical strength. To address this issue, a finite element analysis (FEA) for 206.84 MPa (30 ksi) pressure and 165°C has been performed on the pressure housi...
متن کاملExperimental validation of novel and conventional approaches to quantitative real-time PCR data analysis.
Real-time PCR is being used increasingly as the method of choice for mRNA quantification, allowing rapid analysis of gene expression from low quantities of starting template. Despite a wide range of approaches, the same principles underlie all data analysis, with standard approaches broadly classified as either absolute or relative. In this study we use a variety of absolute and relative approa...
