Experimental Resistance Measurement on Solid-Liquid Two-Phase Flow in Microchannel

Abstract:

Monitoring the flow behaviour on the micro-scale is very important in many industrial and biochemical process, the multiphase coexistence in microchannel provide many attractive characteristics compared to a single-phase flow. The precise flow rate control and well-defined channel geometries make it possible for us to make detailed investigation on multiphase flow phenomena. This paper aims at the measurement of resistance distribution in the cross-section of a novel microchannel based on the Agilent measuring instruments. Experimental results verified the possibility of estimation on particle concentration in the solid-liquid two-phase flow by the measurement of resistance distribution in the microchannel.
