Rapid mixing of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids in a three-dimensional micro-mixer using non-uniform magnetic field
The mixing of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids in a magnetic micro-mixer was studied numerically using ferrofluid. The mixing process was performed in a three-dimensional steady-state micro-mixer. A magnetic source was mounted at the entrance of the micro-channel to oscillate the magnetic particles. The effects of electric current, inlet velocity, size of magnetic particles, and non-Newtonia...
متن کاملEffect of non-uniform Magnetic Field on Non-Newtonian Fluid Separation in a Diffuser
The purpose of the present study is to investigate the boundary layer separation point in a magnetohydrodynamics diffuser. As an innovation, the Re value on the separation point is determined for the non-Newtonian fluid flow under the influence of the non-uniform magnetic field due to an electrical solenoid, in an empirical case. The governing equations include continuity and momentum are solve...
متن کاملA Rapid Magnetofluidic Micromixer Using Diluted Ferrofluid
Abstract: Effective and rapid mixing is essential for various chemical and biological assays. The present work reports a simple and low-cost micromixer based on magnetofluidic actuation. The device takes advantage of magnetoconvective secondary flow, a bulk flow induced by an external magnetic field, for mixing. A paramagnetic stream of diluted ferrofluid and a non-magnetic stream are introduce...
متن کاملNonlinear deformation of a ferrofluid droplet in a uniform magnetic field.
This paper reports experimental and numerical results of the deformation of a ferrofluid droplet on a superhydrophobic surface under the effect of a uniform magnetic field. A water-based ferrofluid droplet surrounded by immiscible mineral oil was stretched by a magnetic field parallel to the substrate surface. The results show that an increasing flux density increases the droplet width and decr...
متن کاملDirect Numerical Simulation of Ferrofluid Drops in a Cylindrical Microfluidic under the Influence of a Non-uniform Magnetic Field
Ferrofluids are magnetic liquids comprised of magnetic nanoparticles coated with surfactants and suspended in a carrier fluid. With biomedical and pharmaceutical applications in mind, we study the motion and deformation of axisymmetric ferrofluid droplets in the presence of non-uniform magnetic fields. Here we carry out direct numerical simulations of interfacial dynamics of ferrofluid droplet ...
