Numerical Investigation of Flow and Mixing in a Microstirrer
Low Reynolds number (Re ∼ 0.001) flow and mixing in a Y-shaped micromixer with a four-paddle rotor placed in its junction were investigated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The rotation speed of the rotor ω ranges from 100 to 2000 RPM (revolutions per minute). The flow vis...
