Experimental observations of flow instabilities and rapid mixing of two dissimilar viscoelastic liquids
Viscoelastically induced flow instabilities, via a simple planar microchannel, were previously used to produce rapid mixing of two dissimilar polymeric liquids (i.e. at least a hundredfold different in shear viscosity) even at a small Reynolds number. The unique advantage of this mixing technology i...
