“…The level of the efficiency also turns out to be very small, at most 0.03%. But this is not far from the values reported in the literature, for example, 0.1% in Nourdanesh and Esmaeilzadeh 33 and 0.001% in Pearson and Seyed-Yagoobi. 34 Furthermore, the pressure difference Dp in this study remains very small, typically 0.089 Pa at W = 0.4 mm, and we did not attempt to investigate the influence of Dp on Q, 12,15,23,25,34 which requires further simulation, for instance, with a longer channel or with an artificial block on the fluid stream inside the channel.…”
