Highlights

  • Several experimental and numerical modeling studies have been performed for the design of micro-fluidic devices in which various geometric designs are suggested to enhance the mixing efficiency in these devices

  • The continuum model being based on Navier–Stokes equations are used to describe fluid flow, when the micro-channels are in the range of the micrometers [14],[15],[16],[17],[18],[19]

  • The preconditioner is changed from diagonal incomplete LU (DILU) to diagonal and obtained results have been presented in Figure 2 (c)

Summary

Introduction

Several experimental and numerical modeling studies have been performed for the design of micro-fluidic devices in which various geometric designs are suggested to enhance the mixing efficiency in these devices. Due to wide applications of micro-fluidic devices in varied disciplines these studies are important in the development of Lab-onchip technology. Micro-mixers are widely used in chemical, biological, medical, and environmental applications [1],[2],[3],[4]. Passive micro-mixers have been widely used and explored by researchers in which improved flow, transport and mixing behavior of these devices are studied [7],[8]. Micro-scale mixing is more challenging process due to laminar flow which is performed at very low molecular diffusivities for many chemical and biological solutions [9],[10]. Flow fields obtained from simulations are used in certain objective functions which are further optimized leading to design cases of micro-mixing
