| Title | Computational Analysis of Passive Micromixer Geometries |
| Summary | Efficient mixing in microfluidic systems is critical for applications in chemical and biological analysis, yet low Reynolds numbers hinder rapid mixing. Passive micromixers, incorporating geometrically induced secondary flows, offer a solution without external energy input. This study employs Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to simulate and evaluate the performance of various passive mixer geometries, such as serpentine, herringbone, and staggered designs. By analyzing mixing index, velocity fields, and pressure drop, the research aims to identify optimal structures for improved mixing efficiency. The results will aid in advancing microfluidic device design for enhanced lab-on-a-chip performance. The student is required to use his/her own computer. |
