Abstract:A superhydrophobic phenomenon during fluids flow through microchannel due to the presence of the textures on the walls of the channels was considered. A numerical study of fluids flow and mixing in the microchannel at different Reynolds numbers and average roughness sizes has been carried out. The shift in the critical Reynolds number of the transition from the vortex symmetric flow regime to the vortex asymmetric (engulfment) regime towards lower values in the T-shaped microchannels with textured walls was fo… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
