The ‘non-coalescence’ or ‘partial coalescence’ regimes, at which the droplet pair does not completely merge, appear under particular conditions, and researchers figured out these conditions using an equal-sized droplet pair. However, actual applications involve the merging of an unequal-sized droplet pair; the conditions for the non-coalescence or partial coalescence of unequal-sized droplet pair have not been clearly established. In this study, we evaluated the electrocoalescence behavior of a droplet pair with varying the droplet radius ratio, the initial distance between droplets, and the strength of electric fields, and found the conditions when non-coalescence and partial coalescence occur for unequal- and equal-sized droplet pairs. We discovered that unequal-sized droplet pair demonstrates non-coalescence and partial coalescence more frequently than equal-sized pair. Additionally, non-coalescence and partial coalescence occurred for lower strength of electric field as droplet size ratio and initial distance between droplets increased. Finally, we demonstrate that the unequal formation of the cone angle for unequal-sized droplet pair causes different electrocoalescence behaviors compared with equal-sized droplet pair. We anticipate that this study will contribute to the identification of an appropriate electric field range for diverse electrocoalescence applications.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":706,"journal":{"name":"Microfluidics and Nanofluidics","volume":"28 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142181976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The flow-focusing device with a cross-section of a square (300 μm × 300 μm) is constructed on polydimethylsiloxane using lithographic techniques and subsequently sealed with polymethylmethacrylate. A high-speed camera is employed to document the process of bubble formation during the experiment, complemented by computational fluid dynamics methods for an in-depth analysis. The gas is nitrogen, and the liquid is sodium carboxymethyl cellulose solutions with mass fractions of 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3%, respectively. The inlet flow rates of gas and liquid are set at 1–2 ml/min in the simulation and the experiment, and the observed flow patterns are all slug flows. Experimental findings suggest that the duration of bubble formation can be bifurcated into two distinct parts. The first part is predominantly influenced by the velocity of the inlet gas, and the correlation coefficient between velocity and time is −0.56, while the second part is impacted by the shear-thinning properties of the liquid, which are correlated with the flow index and viscosity coefficient of the non-Newtonian liquids, and the correlation coefficients are −0.47 and 0.48, respectively. The computational fluid dynamics results of gas-non-Newtonian liquid two-phase flow with gas and liquid flow rates of 2 ml/min corroborate that the manifestation of the aforementioned time segmentation phenomenon primarily depends on the vortex intensity at the bubble’s head and the orientation of pressure gradients. When the bubble neck size approaches 0, the viscosity of the surrounding liquid decreases rapidly, and alterations in the velocity field near the bubble neck trigger fluctuations in the viscosity of the non-Newtonian liquid, thereby influencing the bubble formation process.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":706,"journal":{"name":"Microfluidics and Nanofluidics","volume":"28 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142181937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, Molecular Tagging Velocimetry (MTV) has been successfully applied to gas flows in mini-channels in the continuum regime at high pressure and early slip-flow regime at lower pressure. As the operating pressure decreases, diffusion effects become more pronounced, and in MTV, they hinder the extraction of the correct velocity profile by simply dividing the displacement profile of the tagged molecular line by time of flight. To address this issue, a reconstruction method that considers Taylor dispersion was previously developed to extract the velocity profile, considering the diffusion effects of the tracer molecules within the carrier gas. This reconstruction method successfully extracted the correct velocity profile in the continuum flow regime. However, the method still faces challenges in the slip-flow regime. Since there is currently no consensus in the literature regarding the kinetic diameter value of acetone vapor, the diffusion coefficient estimation is uncertain especially at low pressures. This is why, in this study, we propose an original optical method to measure the diffusion coefficient of acetone vapor. This is achieved by linking the temporal evolution of the spatial photoluminescence distribution of acetone vapor to the diffusion coefficient via the Chapman-Enskog theory. Our research provides measurements of these parameters for a wide range of pressures (0.5–10 kPa) at ambient temperature.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":706,"journal":{"name":"Microfluidics and Nanofluidics","volume":"28 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10404-024-02754-8.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141923321","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study developed ANN models to predict the relationship between shell thickness and double-emulsion size in a double-T microchannel, using two datasets comprising 180 experimental and CFD data points. Assessing this relationship involved analyzing various input factors, including the Capillary, Weber (case A), and Reynolds numbers (case B) of the core, shell, and continuous phases.

Additionally, the predictive accuracy of ANN models was found to be significantly improved when trained using a combination of capillary and Weber numbers, as opposed to models trained only using capillary, Weber, and Reynolds numbers. The optimal neural network architectures were [10 5] neurons for case A (tansig and logsig) and [8] neurons for case B (tansig), yielding coefficients of determination (R<sup>2</sup>) of 0.99 and 0.98, respectively.

In this study, we investigate the use of 3-D intricate microchannel geometries in microfluidic heat sinks, their generated hydrodynamics, and their profound impact on the overall heat transfer process.

Experimental observation illustrates that the coil-microchannel configuration exhibited superior heat dissipation capabilities, outperforming both the square and triangle microchannels across all flow settings.
