摘要:

表面张力梯度诱导Marangoni流,其可用于流体输送。在微米尺度上,这些表面驱动的流动可能比压力驱动的流动更重要。通过在微流体通道的壁上引入流体-流体界面,我们使用表面张力梯度来驱动体相流体流动。通过热能特别地诱导梯度,利用流体-流体界面的温度依赖性来产生热毛细流动。在这份报告中,我们提供了一个生物相容性,热毛细微通道的设计概念,能够由太阳辐射供电。使用每厘米摄氏度的温度梯度,我们可以获得每秒毫米的流体速度。通过实验观察、流体动力学模型和数值模拟,我们发现流体速度与所提供的温度梯度成线性比例,从而能够完全控制微通道内的流体流动。

英文摘要:

Surface tension gradients induce Marangoni flow, which may be exploited for fluid transport. At the micrometer scale, these surface-driven flows can be more significant than those driven by pressure. By introducing fluid-fluid interfaces on the walls of microfluidic channels, we use surface tension gradients to drive bulk fluid flows. The gradients are specifically induced through thermal energy, exploiting the temperature dependence of a fluid-fluid interface to generate thermocapillary flow. In this report, we provide the design concept for a biocompatible, thermocapillary microchannel capable of being powered by solar irradiation. Using temperature gradients on the order of degrees Celsius per centimeter, we achieve fluid velocities on the order of millimeters per second. Following experimental observations, fluid dynamic models, and numerical simulation, we find that the fluid velocity is linearly proportional to the provided temperature gradient, enabling full control of the fluid flow within the microchannels.
