Effect of Optical Rotor on Mixing in Y-shaped Microchannel Flow

This paper analyses numerically the effect of optical rotor with N-paddle (N=3, 4, and 5) on mixing process of two fluids in Y-shaped channel flow by computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Streakline tracking simulation is employed to study dynamic mixing in the mixer. Mixing performance of the mixer i...
