When MHD-Based Microfluidics is Equivalent to Pressure-Driven Flow
Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) provides a convenient, programmable means for propelling liquids and controlling fluid flow in microfluidic devices without a need for mechanical pumps and valves. When the magnetic field is uniform and the electric field in the electrolyte solution is confined to a plane that is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field, the Lorentz body force is irrotatio...
متن کاملMethod for Pressure Driven Mhd Duct Flow
In this paper, ve investigate the flov of a viscous, Incompresslble, electrlcally conducting fluld through a rectangular duct in the presence of a magnetic fleld, when one of the boundaries perpedlcular to the umgnetlc field is partly conducting and partly Insu/atlng, by a modified Boundary Integral Hethod. Three problems are considered (1) flov through an infinite channel, (li) flov through a ...
متن کاملUsing Burnett Equations to Derive an Analytical Solution to Pressure-Driven Gas Flow and Heat Transfer in Micro-Couette Flow
The aim of the present study is deriving an analytical solution to incompressible thermal flow in a micro-Couette geometry in the presence of a pressure gradient using Burnett equations with first- and second-order slip boundary conditions. The lower plate of the micro-Couette structure is stationary, whereas the upper plate moves at a constant velocity. Non-dimensional axial velocity and tempe...
متن کاملHydrogel-driven paper-based microfluidics.
Paper-based microfluidics provide an inexpensive, easy to use technology for point-of-care diagnostics in developing countries. Here, we combine paper-based microfluidic devices with responsive hydrogels to add an entire new class of functions to these versatile low-cost fluidic systems. The hydrogels serve as fluid reservoirs. In response to an external stimulus, e.g. an increase in temperatur...
متن کاملPressure- and magnetic shear-driven instabilities in rotating MHD jets
We derive new stability criteria for purely MHD instabilities in rotating jets, in the framework of the ballooning ordering expansion. Quite unexpectedly, they involve a term which is linear in the magnetic shear. This implies that cylindrical configurations can be destabilized by a negative magnetic shear as well as by a favorable equilibrium pressure gradient, in distinction with the predicti...
