Micro-PIV를 이용한 마이크로 튜브/채널 내에서의 혈장유동 측정

Measurements of Plasma Flows in Micro-Tube/Channel Using Micro-PIV

In this paper, flow characteristics of plasma flow in a micro-tube were investigated experimentally using Micro-PIV. For comparision, the experiments were repeated for DI-water instead of plasma. Both velocity profiles of Plasma and DI-water are well agreed with the theoretical velocity distribution of newtonian fluid. We also carried out generating plasma-in-oil droplet formation at a Y-junction microchannel. In order to clarify the hydrodynamic aspects involved in plasma droplet formation. Rhodamin B were mixed with plasma only for visualization of plasma droplet.
