Abstract:The phenomenon of hydrodynamic focusing in a flow cytometer is investigated using a computational approach. In this work, a three-dimensional two-fluid theoretical model was established to describe the flow transport behaviour and the interaction of two fluids coflowing at different velocities. Treating both sample and sheath fluids as laminar, incompressible, and isothermal flows, the analysis encompasses two sets of three-dimensional unsteady equations for conservation of mass and momentum, with consideratio… Show more
