Optimum design for the Tesla micromixer

Bahador Abolpour et al.

Summary: This study investigates the optimal design of a two-dimensional Tesla-shaped micromixer for high mixing index and low-pressure drop. The genetic algorithm is used to obtain the optimum structural design, and image processing is used to identify the micromixer edges and generate a mesh configuration. The governing equations of laminar fluid flow and concentration are discretized and solved using the finite volume method. The best design is achieved by rotating the central obstacles of the Tesla micromixer, resulting in a lower mixing cost and better performance than the original design.

A low-cost and high-performance 3D micromixer over a wide working range and its application for high-sensitivity biomarker detection

Bo Liu et al.

Summary: This study developed a high-performance 3D micromixer using low-cost 3D printing technology. The micromixer demonstrated excellent mixing performance over a wide range of flow rates and viscosities. The experimental results showed a mixing efficiency of over 96.5% for water and over 85.1% for solutions with viscosities nearly 13 times that of water. The micromixer also achieved rapid mixing with a mixing time of 883.7 mu s for aqueous solutions.

Tuning particle inertial separation in sinusoidal channels by embedding periodic obstacle microstructures

Haotian Cha et al.

Summary: Inertial microfluidics relies on fluid dynamics at high flow speeds, with channel geometry being the critical design parameter. Four basic channel geometries have been proposed and studied extensively. This work explores embedding periodic concave and convex obstacle microstructures in sinusoidal channels, investigating their impact on particle inertial focusing and separation. The results suggest that embedding microstructures brings flexibility to device design and enables high-performance separation.

Investigation of different geometrical configurations effect on mixing performance of passive split-and-recombine micromixer

Reza Karimi et al.

Summary: This paper presents a three-dimensional study of the nitrogen and oxygen mixing process in a T-type micromixer, and validates the improvement of mixing quality by introducing SAR structures. It is found that at low Reynolds numbers, the mixing quality is high, and increasing the cross-section area of mixing units can enhance mixing quality.

CFD Analysis of a Kenics Static Mixer with a Low Pressure Drop under Laminar Flow Conditions

Baggie W. Nyande et al.

Summary: Kenics static mixers achieve enhanced mixing efficiency at lower pressure drops by introducing gaps between the mixing elements. The gaps enhance mixing effects at the entrances and exits of the mixing elements, providing a compromise between the required mixing length and pressure drop. The presence of gaps allows for a narrower residence time distribution and suppression of Taylor dispersion, improving overall mixing performance.
