| | Stability Criterion for Microscale Concentric Flow of Two Immiscible Liquids | | Authors: | L.W. Ho, J. Marchetti and C. Gallegos | | Affilation: | IntelliSense Corporation, U.S.A. | | Pages: | 530 - 533 | | Keywords: | immiscible, microfluidics, stability, simulation, multifluid | | Abstract: | This paper addresses the establishment of a stability criterion for isothermal laminar concentric flow of two immiscible liquids. Using the approach of combined non-dimensional group anlysis and numerical simulations, it is established that the inner core liquid will be stable and maintain a thread like configuration if the capillary number exceeds unity, but it will be unstable and break up into droplets if the capillary number is below unity. | | ISBN: | 0-9666135-4-6 |
