Abstract:
Microstructure could induce the stretching and the folding of the interface between different fluids as well as the secondary flow, which highly influences the fluid mixing in microchannel. Based on the prior study on the fluid mixing in microchannel with microstructures on one side, microchannels with microstructures on two sides were fabricated, and experiments were conducted on the fluid mixing. The experimental results show that, in comparison to the microchannel with microstructures on one side, no multilamellar fluid structure was generated in the microchannel with microstructures on two sides, resulting in a low mixing efficiency. In addition, more structures were designed in the microchannel with microstructures on two sides, which induces high flow resistance and low throughput. This study is of great help for the design of the efficient mixer and the application of the microfluidic technology in variety of fields including biomedicine, analytical chemistry and reaction. © 2019, Science Press.
