Comparison of Micro-Mixing in Time Pulsed Newtonian Fluid and Viscoelastic Fluid

Comparison of Micro-Mixing in Time Pulsed Newtonian Fluid and Viscoelastic Fluid

Fluid mixing plays an essential role in many microfluidic applications. Here, we compare the mixing in time pulsing flows for both a Newtonian fluid and a viscoelastic fluid at different pulsing frequencies. In general, the mixing degree in the viscoelastic fluid is higher than that in the Newtonian...
