Analysis of Hydrodynamic Mechanism on Particles Focusing in Micro-Channel Flows
In this paper, the hydrodynamic mechanism of moving particles in laminar micro-channel flows was numerically investigated. A hydrodynamic criterion was proposed to determine whether particles in channel flows can form a focusing pattern or not. A simple formula was derived to demonstrate how the foc...
