Improved Design of Microchannel Plate Geometry for Uniform Flow Distribution

Abstract: Le besoin d'atteindre une capacité élevée dans les micro-dispositifs mène à des vitesses élevées dans les micro-canaux, ce qui produit des pertes de charge élevées. Du fait de la géométrie des plaques de micro-canaux, la perte de charge la plus élevée peut se produire en des points précis et causer des écoulements inégaux le long des micro-canaux, réduisant ainsi la performance. Afi n de maintenir une distribution de l'écoulement uniforme dans des conditions de capacité élevée, on a construit un modèle bidimen… Show more

“…On the contrary, the poorest configuration is that with right inlet/ right outlet. This finding confirms a similar conclusion mentioned by Balaji and Lakshminarayanan (2006). According to Balaji and Lakshminarayanan (2006), in the case with two outlets, the velocity distribution can become much more uniform than other designs.…”

“…A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was used to calculate the flow distribution on a micro-structured plate by Delsman et al (2004), and the results revealed that optimal geometry is dependent on the flow rate. Balaji and Lakshminarayanan (2006) also designed a novel structure so as to produce an even velocity distribution. In this design, the model was equipped with one inlet and two outlets to yield uniform pressure drop in the channels.…”

“…Pan et al [19] carried out optimal design of complex manifold geometries for even flow distribution between microchannels by means of a flow network method. Balaji and Lakshminarayanan [20] also designed a novel structure so as to produce an even velocity distribution. In this design, the model was equipped with one inlet and two outlets to yield a uniform pressure drop in the channels.…”

“…Several researchers have reported on the effects of geometric parameters on the flow uniformity [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. For example, simulation results have shown that magnification of the manifold length makes the flow distribution uniform.…”
