摘要:Microdroplet technology has recently emerged to provide a new and diverse application viamicrofluidics functionality, especially in the area of biology and chemistry. This paper describes the formation ofmicrodroplets in microfluidic T-junction. In this paper, we investigated the effect of generation of microdroplets intwo-phase flow structure under four distinct physical parameters (continuous phase flow rates, dispersed channel width,the viscosity of the continuous fluid and interfacial tension between two fluids). Here, we also discussed the effect ondroplet length with the change of these parameters. The droplet length is calculated from the simulated results and aquantitative scaling law equation [3] was used to predict the droplet length which is consistent with the simulationresults. This complete formation of micro-droplets is carried out at two phase low level set in the COMSOL 4.3bMultiphysics software.
