Design and Simulation of Optimal Microfluidic Channel Design for Effective Fluid Mixing

of mass, momentum, and energy, in conjunction with a turbulence model. The mixedness (degree of mixing) of jet and main fluids depends greatly on jet angle and jet velocity. Counter-flow injection of jet fluid and high jet velocity are required to have a satisfactory fluid mixing for MHD combustor applications. 9 refs., 8 figs.
