 LI Chuang, CHEN Tian-ning

Micro mixer is an important part in bio-microfluidic chips. Since the cross section of the channel is of micrometers scale, the analysis would not get satisfactory result if we use general fluidic FEM. In this paper, a lattice Boltzmann method was used to simulate the characteristics of a micro mixer. Based on the computation of the flow speeds in the chaotic micro mixers with oblique grooves on the floors, the dispersive mixing processes of the trace sample particles in carrier flows were simulated, and the relation between mixing standard deviation and mixing passage length for the sample particles was investigated, which was found consistent with Gauss curve pattern. The simulation results agree well with the experiments data in the literature. Above results show that the lattice Boltzmann method could be used as a powerful tool for the researches of microfluidic mixers and microfluidic chips.
