Particle Focusing under Newtonian and Viscoelastic Flow in a Straight Rhombic Microchannel

Particle behavior in viscoelastic fluids has attracted considerable attention in recent years. In viscoelastic fluids, as opposed to Newtonian fluids, particle focusing can be simply realized in a microchannel without any external forces or complex structures. In this study, a polydimethylsiloxane (...
