Numerical study of thermocoalescence of microdroplets in a microfluidic chamber

The present paper reports the numerical investigation of thermocoalescence of droplets in a microchannel network consisting of a droplet formation section connecting to a temperature-induced merging chamber. The numerical model is formulated as an incompressible immiscible two-phase flow problem wit...
