Numerical simulation of electroosmotic flow in a rectangular microchannel with use of magnetic and electric fields
Published in Scientia Iranica. Transaction B, Mechanical Engineering, 2024
This work presents a numerical study of electroosmotic flow (EOF) in a rectangular microchannel subjected to combined electric and magnetic fields. Electroosmotic flow is a key mechanism in microfluidic systems, particularly for lab-on-a-chip and biomedical applications. We examine how varying the strength and orientation of the electric and magnetic fields influences the velocity profiles, flow patterns, and transport efficiency within the channel. The findings offer valuable insights into optimizing microchannel performance for precise flow control in advanced micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS).
