摘要:The development of microelectronic technology leads to a new technology branch, namely microfluidics. This technology can manipulate a complicated laboratory instrument into a single chip. The process of making chip starts with making mask, molding a master, pouring of Polydimethilsiloxane (PDMS) into the master, and then making the bonding between the PDMS and glass by using plasma technology. The next step is microfluidics testing by passing the mixing of granular material wheatbran and dionized water through the chip’s channel with the speed of 5,000 μl/hour, and recording the flow of fluid by using high speed camera. The result was then analyzed by Navier-Stokes equation and employed the simulation to predict the flow inside the chip. It can be concluded that the characteristics of fluid’s flow found are non-newtonian fluid and the wheatbran particle has inelastic collision.
