Development and testing of a constructal microchannel flow system with dynamically controlled complexity
Abstract(#br)A microfluidic device containing a constructal-based branched flow structure with an externally controllable complexity was developed and tested in this study. The device was fabricated in the form of a 10\u003cce:hsp sp=\"0.25\"/\u003emm square by 9\u003cce:hsp sp=\"0.25\"/\u003emm high monolithic silicon/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) test section which contains three interconnected flow channels in a tee configuration.
