Pressure-driven transport of particles through a converging-diverging microchannel.
Pressure-driven transport of particles through a symmetric converging-diverging microchannel is studied by solving a coupled nonlinear system, which is composed of the Navier-Stokes and continuity equations using the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian finite-element technique. The predicted particle translation is in good agreement with existing experimental observations. The effects of pressure gra...
متن کاملDielectrophoretic choking phenomenon in a converging-diverging microchannel.
Experiments show that particles smaller than the throat size of converging-diverging microchannels can sometimes be trapped near the throat. This critical phenomenon is associated with the negative dc dielectrophoresis arising from nonuniform electric fields in the microchannels. A finite-element model, accounting for the particle-fluid-electric field interactions, is employed to investigate th...
متن کاملLaminar Fully Developed Flow in Periodically Converging-diverging Microtubes
Laminar fully developed ow and pressure drop in linearly varying cross -section converging-diverging microtubes have been is investigated in this work. These microtubes are formed from a series of converging-diverging modules. An analytical model is developed for frictional ow resistance assuming parabolic axial velocity pro le in diverging and converging sections. Frictional ow resistance is f...
متن کاملMicrofluidic converging/diverging channels optimised for homogeneous extensional deformation
In this work, we optimise microfluidic converging/diverging geometries in order to produce constant strain-rates along the centreline of the flow, for performing studies under homogeneous extension. The design is examined for both two-dimensional and three-dimensional flows where the effects of aspect ratio and dimensionless contraction length are investigated. Initially, pressure driven flows ...
متن کاملOne-dimensional Bubbly Cavitating Flows through a Converging-diverging Nozzle
A non-barotropic continuum bubbly mixture model is used to study the one-dimensional cavitating ow through a converging-diverging nozzle. The nonlinear dynamics of the cavitation bubbles are modeled by the Rayleigh-Plesset equation. Analytical results show that the bubble/bubble interaction through the hydrodynamics of the surrounding liquid has important e ects on this con ned ow eld. One clea...
