“…Keeping the same definition in rectangular microchannels, the longest (horizontal) side of the cross section is usually referred to as "width" (W) and the shortest (vertical) as "height" (H). Research groups all over the world have studied flows inside microchannels with various ARs: 1 (W = 100 m, H = 100 m, Lima et al, 2006), 1.7 (W = 80 m, H = 48 m, Kuang et al, 2009), 4 (W = 800 m, H = 200 m, Lindken et al, 2006;W = 20mm, H = 5mm, Timgren et al, 2008), 6.7 (W = 300mm, H = 45mm, Lima et al, 2008) and 10 (W = 300 m, H = 30 m, Meinhart et al, 1999).…”
