“…Material processing can be understood as the “transport phenomena of complex fluid” in a wide range of industries such as petrochemicals, semiconductors, batteries, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals. In these processes, materials flow through various confined geometries such as pipes, nozzles, filters, and membranes. − A colloidal suspension flowing in such a confined geometry often causes clogging, which is an undesirable phenomenon because it degrades process performance and causes various flow problems (e.g., unpredictable deformation of the flow field, increased residence time, and vortex formation) . To understand the clogging mechanism, microfluidics has been widely employed in previous studies because the operational conditions (e.g., geometrical parameters or flow conditions) are easily controlled, and direct observations of clogging dynamics are possible …”
