Description

Passive micro mixer with spatial structure
Technical Field
The utility model relates to the technical field of microfluid mixing, in particular to a passive micromixer with a space structure.
Background
Micromixers are key components for performing chemical or biological reactions and detecting analytes in microfluidic or lab-on-a-chip devices. Micromixers are widely used in microfluidic systems to produce homogeneous mixtures for chemical reactions, chemical synthesis, purification, polymerization, sample preconcentration, deoxyribonucleic acid digestion, and nanomedicine. In such applications, mixing is critical, as non-uniform mixing negatively impacts the properties of the final product. Laminar flow occurs when the reynolds number (Re) is below 2000, causing diffusion to be the driving mechanism for mixing. Thus, the mixing of the fluids is affected by the interfacial area and diffusion length between the fluids. The traditional approach to achieve efficient mixing at low Re values is to significantly increase the length of the microfluidic channel, however, this is difficult to achieve in small volume microfluidic chips. In microfluidic devices, mixing is often limited by diffusion, which is a relatively long time, resulting in inefficient subsequent analysis. For this reason, improvement of mixing efficiency has been the focus of various studies.
Devices for enhancing mixing performance in microchannels can be divided into two broad categories, active mixers and passive mixers. Active mixers are more often preferred over passive micromixers due to the additional equipment required to improve mixing efficiency, complexity and cost of operation. The passive micro mixer mainly completes mixing action through diffusion and chaotic flow, and common structures comprise a T-shaped structure, a Y-shaped structure, a zigzag structure, a spiral structure and the like. However, the mixing efficiency of most passive micromixers is still limited by the size of the device dimensions.
Therefore, it is very important to design and manufacture a micro mixer with small volume, simple structure, convenient manufacture and high mixing efficiency to realize rapid and uniform liquid mixing.
