Fluid mixing in a T-shaped micro-mixer
In relation to the time-scale of chemical kinetics, diffusive transport in micro-devices is faster than in conventional mixers. To exploit the resulting potential for chemical process engineering, size effects evident in the transport processes have to be understood. For this purpose, the scaling behaviour concerning the transport of mass, momentum and heat are considered. Just as much, the mix...
متن کاملNumerical Investigation of Fluid Mixing in a Micro-Channel Mixer with Two Rotating Stirrers by Using the Incompressible SPH Method
Fluid mixing is a crucial and challenging process for microfluidic systems, which are widely used in biochemical processes. Because of their fast performance, active micromixers that use stirrer blades are considered for biological applications. In the present study, by using a robust and convenient Incompressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (ISPH) method, miscible mix...
متن کاملNumerical and experimental observation of chaotic mixing in microfluidic mixer
Both the chaotic mixers (Fig.1) adopt a two-layer overlapping channels structure, which is very efficient for fluid manipulations such as stretching and folding, splitting and recombination. Even at extremely low Re (~10), chaotic advection can be generated. Both particle tracing simulation (Fig. 2) and experimental results (Fig.3) show that as the fluids are driven through the mixer, striation...
متن کاملInfluence of the Inlet Conditions on the Degree of Mixing of a T-shaped Micro-mixer
The degree of mixing of a T-shaped micro-mixer depends strongly on the inlet flow conditions. Specifically, through a series of numerical simulations, we compared the case where the flow at the micro-mixer confluence is fully developed with that when it is not, and found that in the former case engulfment occurs at smaller Reynolds number, with a different flow pattern and with much larger mixi...
متن کاملPort Positions on the Mixing Efficiency of a Rotor-Type Mixer – A Numerical Study
The purpose of this study was to explore the complex flow structure a novel active-type micromixer that based on concept of Wankle-type rotor. The characteristics of this micromixer are two folds; a rapid mixing of reagents in a limited space due to the generation of multiple vortices and a graduate increment in dynamic pressure as the mixed reagents is delivered to the output ports. Present mi...
