Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Complex Flow Generation in Microchannel

Kim D.S., Kwon T.H., Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH), KR

In this paper, we present design methodologies for magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) complex flow generation in a simple straight microchannel in which electrodes are patterned on two side walls and bottom wall. The required applied voltage conditions [...]

Electroosmotic Pumping of Nonconducting Liquids by Viscous Drag from a Secondary Conducting Liquid

Brask A., Goranovic G., Bruus H., Technical University of Denmark, DK

A novel electroosmotic pump design relying on two-liquid viscous drag to pump nonconducting liquids is presented and analyzed theoretically. A conducting pumping liquid driven by electroosmotic flow (EOF) drags a nonconducting working liquid by viscous [...]
