Rheological and Velocity Profile Measurements of Blood in Microflow Using Micro-particle Image Velocimetry
Microhemodynamics is the study of blood flow in small vessels, usually on the order of 50 to 100 µm. The in vitro study of blood flow in small channels is analogous to the in vivo study of the microcirculation. At this scale the Reynolds and Womersly numbers are significantly less than 1 and the...
