Mixing Improvement in a T-Shaped Micro-Junction through Small Rectangular Cavities

Mixing Improvement in a T-Shaped Micro-Junction through Small Rectangular Cavities

The T-shaped micro-junction is among the most used geometry in microfluidic applications, and many design modifications of the channel walls have been proposed to enhance mixing. In this work, we investigate through numerical simulations the introduction of one pair of small rectangular cavities in...
