Lattice Boltzmann Simulations Comparing Conventional and a Heat Conduction Based Flow-Through PCR Micro-Devices
This paper describes the lattice Boltzmann, numerical simu-lations used to evaluate a conduction-based, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) device for uniformity of the micro channel temperature profile and its velocity field distribu-tion. For comparison purposes, numerical [...]
Galilean Invariant Viscosity Term for an Athermal Integer Lattice Boltzmann Automaton in three Dimensions
The athermal lattice Boltzmann automata (LBA) are promising replacements for Navier Stokes solvers in computational fluid dynamics (CFD). They are inherently parallel, scale exactly linear with the number of computational elements and can be applied [...]
Numerical Simulation of Microfluidic Flow Using a Combination of Micro and Macro Computational Techniques: Scaling Issues
Recent literature has demonstrated the possibilities of using configurable surfaces to enhance the flow of fluids in MEMS devices. Not only are surface properties important in fluid delivery, the inherent problems of mixing by diffusion [...]
