It was confirmed that the degree of mixing in ceramic-based microfluidic
passive mixers was well matched with the numerical simulation data.
After manufacturing the various kinds of mixers, the microfluidic test was progressed and their performance was evaluated comparing with simulation result.
In addition, a numerical simulation using a commercial tool (CFD-ACE+; ESI, Huntsville, AL) was progressed to obtain the mixing efficiency of T-type mixers and chaotic mixer.
Comparing with simulation data, it could be deduced that ceramic-based T-type mixers shown here were well operated under the diffusion driven liquid mixing.
Comparison of mixing efficiency at the point of microchannel outlet between numerical simulation data and experiment result Channel width Mixing efficiency (η) Simulation Experiment T-type mixer 1 mm 26% 12.1% 200 µm 90% 80.6% Chaotic mixer 200 µm 47% 45.0% Conclusion Here, we showed a novel process to fabricated ceramic-based microfluidic passive mixer using LTCC and photolithography.

In this work, we use computational simulations to show there is a transitional region (1 < Re < 20) in between the laminar and creeping regimes for two different micropost array geometries.
We use computational simulations and numerical analysis to better understand the fundamental differences between creeping (Re << 1) and laminar flow (Re > 1) in micro post arrays and identify a transitional flow regime (1 < Re < 20).
A structured mesh was built in ANSYS ICEM CFD 14.5 and element quality was checked using the determinant, angle and aspect ratio as metrics.
Once the CFD simulations were complete, flow profile data was exported into MATLAB for analysis.
Water is a Newtonian fluid, unlike blood, however it is a useful benchmark fluid as it is well-defined and simulating water will allow us to directly compare the simulations to experimental data.
